There's also __kernel_fd_set in <linux/posix_types.h>.  I may have

Hmm.

That one we might be able to just fix by renaming "fds_bits" to "__fds_bits".

Unlike the "val[]" thing, I don't think anybody is supposed to access
those fields directly.

Of course, "supposed to" and "does" are two very very different things ;)
