This means also that Olaf's patch is broken, when CONFIG_COMPAT is not
set, MSG_CMSG_COMPAT is zero, thus ~MSG_CMSG_COMPAT is the unexpected
value all 1's thus breaking the tests for unexpected flags completely.
??? Where do you get ~MSG_CMSG_COMPAT from?
Olaf's patch, it said:

-	if (flags & ~(MSG_PEEK|MSG_DONTWAIT|MSG_TRUNC))
+	if (flags & ~(MSG_PEEK|MSG_DONTWAIT|MSG_TRUNC|MSG_CMSG_COMPAT))
Yes, and where is the problem?

Andreas.
