It's generated by some configure script (conftest), normally nothing to worry 
about. It's easy to get if you have a jail 'running' 6.x and you haven't set 
OSREL and/or UNAME_R correctly. Also, some configure scripts just try to 
invoke linux/posix/apple_syscall_foo to see if it's there.

    and never get to the software part.
