man 3 inet

SYNOPSIS
     #include <sys/types.h>
     #include <sys/socket.h>
     #include <netinet/in.h>
     #include <arpa/inet.h>
...

The includes must be in that order.
sys/types.h and sys/socket.h define the types that are used in netint/in.h .

It will work on Linux as well, to my experience at least.
