I'm still uneasy about reviewing public API additions (adding error_t 
globally; adding sys/uio_ext.h) mixed in with header cleanups.  In my view 
such additions really need to be proposed separately from cleanups, and 
reach a wider consensus, as well as probably including NEWS entries and 
documentation in the manual.
