[pcvt_ioctl.h suffers from the same problem.] Folks, a name _t for a struct (not the typedef of the struct, which would be bad enough, see style(9)) is very counter-intuitive, leaving the problems the C++ folks introduce by their typedef-saving "solution" aside for a moment. May I kindly request that you change it or otherwise keep friendly when I change it this weekend? Yes, I do a full make world, as the userland console support stuff will probably break. Looks fairly trivial [famous last words...].
