I came >< this close to removing the assumed struct many years ago
when I orthogonalized sys/queue.h, but were persuaded by others that
it was pointless and that nobody were ever going to use it with C++
anyway, C++ being so much more evolved in such aspects :-)

Wouldn't

	#ifndef SYS_QUEUE_STRUCT
	#  define SYS_QUEUE_STRUCT struct
	#endif

Make more sense ?

That would allow C code to also make the struct explicit.
