When I imported queue.h it matches what was in glibc back then. I tried
updating queue.h in glibc around the same time, but Uli doesn't like it.
Updating the man page to reflected some distro fork of the header
doesn't seem like a good idea.
And at least five year ago all the maintained BSDs actually had quite
different additions to queue.h, so which one to pick would be rather
hard and I at least partially understand Uli's rejection.
