Well it puts a lot more stuff into the namespace and has a much larger
parsing cost (for the 99% of applications using sys/un.h that don't
need SUN_LEN). I think just using strlen and adding the __NEED_size_t
and prototype might be the least ugly though, now... after all none of
the options are clean.
