I think in the past we've labeled these as application problems, but
perhaps we might want to be a bit more accommodating to pseudo-
conformant applications (especially considering it usually only
requires an s/u_int/unsigned int/ and s/u_int(\d+)_t/uint$1_t/ in
userland headers).

I'm seeking commit approval to fix both of these.
