Package: manpages-dev
Version: 2.19-1
Severity: normal

The sendmsg(2) and recvmsg(2) contain an incorrect desctiption of
struct msghdr.

The manpage says:

  socklen_t    msg_controllen; /* ancillary data buffer len */

Whereas the actual implementaton (from {x86_64-linux-gnu/,}bits/socket.h) is:

  size_t msg_controllen; /*...*/

Ths makes a difference on 64-bit targets.
