I'm reticent to apply a kernel patch to resolve C++ compilation
issues. You can easily fix this by keeping a cached copy of this
header file in your userspace application.
What existing C++ FOS software is using the native binary iptables
interface?

I guess you're using an older kernel version, this nows resides in
include/uapi/linux.
