Duhh...

I was seeing it, but that was because I forgot to do a make install in
/usr/src/include.  I had naively assumed that the changes were in
/usr/include, but the patch went into the more correct /usr/src/include.
After that, things work OK for me.

Make sure you install the fixed include files.
