Hi,

There seems to be an error in either the documentation or in 
the include files.

I was compiling GNOME from sources myself and had to fix
zvt/subshell.c to explicitely include <machine/param.h>

The problem lay in the use of the CMSG_DATA() macro, which
is not documented. The recvmsg() function, which receives
the message data on which the macro operates, is documented,
but it doesn't mention including <machine/param.h> either.

So what should be fixed? The documentation or the include
files?

Regards,
Marc.
