What is the deal with the pattern of structs from sys/sys/sysproto.h?

Any idea why in "struct sendto_args" from "sys/sys/sysproto.h" all 
members are surrounded by "<other_member>_l_" and "<other_member>_r_" 
members?


 From what I can see many structs from that file follows this pattern, 
it has to do with structs padding and if so, why we need two of them for 
each member?
