It'd doable, but then I need to play with the include guards, like
having "#define __BPF_REINCLUDE" or something like that before
reincluding it, I guess? Unless that file can simply not be included
anywhere?

Maybe I'll play with it - though perhaps it should be named bpf_types.h
or something like that so we don't have to have two files.
