Why is it valid for there to be a previous forward declaration? I don't think
it's permitted for applications to make their own declarations of these types.

Fixed for 2.40 via:

commit 8d7b6b4cb27d4dec1dd5f7960298c1699275f962

    socket: Use may_alias on sockaddr structs (bug 19622)

    This supports common coding patterns.  The GCC C front end before
    version 7 rejects the may_alias attribute on a struct definition
    if it was not present in a previous forward declaration, so this
    attribute can only be conditionally applied.

    This implements the spirit of the change in Austin Group issue 1641.
