[Bug libc/15544] New: move idtype_t definition into sysdeps (bits) directory

            Bug ID: 15544
           Summary: move idtype_t definition into sysdeps (bits) directory
           Product: glibc
           Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: libc
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: Petr.Salinger at seznam dot cz
                CC: drepper.fsp at gmail dot com

Currently the installed <sys/wait.h> contains

typedef enum
{
  P_ALL,                /* Wait for any child.  */
  P_PID,                /* Wait for specified process.  */
  P_PGID                /* Wait for members of process group.  */
} idtype_t;

It cannot be overriden. Please move this into separate bits header,
either a new one or into bits/waitflags.h.

The FreeBSD kernel follows Solaris enumeration, which is a different one.
See http://svnweb.freebsd.org/base/head/sys/sys/wait.h

Thanks for considering.

--- Comment #2 from Adam Conrad <adconrad at 0c3 dot net> ---
So, worth noting on this that the Linux kernel and glibc have different ideas
about P_ALL, P_GID, and P_PID.  This has gone unnoticed for a long time
probably due to a fluke in header ordering, but this slight change has made
anyone who includes <linux/keyboard.h> explode.  So far, we've seen that with
sdl and kbd.

Not sure who is "right" and "wrong" here, but I'm inclined to say that
linux/wait.h is probably the wrong one.  Either way, it should be sorted on one
side or the other.
