Looks good. A few more things, mostly just questions to make sure
stuff is ok..

Is there a reason for this? bsd_signal was a legacy SUSv3 function
removed in SUSv4/POSIX-2008, which was originally added mainly so that
programs written for BSD signal semantics could do:
#define signal bsd_signal
on non-BSD systems and still work. On glibc and musl it's utterly
useless since signal, by default, has BSD semantics. (POSIX allows
either and only BSD is sane.)
I doubt any code for BSD would ever be calling bsd_signal, as the
whole purpose of it is to provide an alternate function with BSD
behavior on non-BSD systems.

TCP_* is in the reserved namespace for this header, so I think it
would be reasonable to define all the macros unconditionally. What
about the two includes, though? If they're needed to make GNU/BSD
programs work, we should still keep the check just for them.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Just reminding myself this define is at best useless and at worst
harmful (big bloat). But changing it is separate; I'll do it after the
BSD commit.

See comments at the top of this email. Unless there's a really good
reason to declare this with BSD_SOURCE I'd like to leave it just under
_GNU_SOURCE.

Is L_SET defined somewhere else?

Also mainly a reminder to me: forkall is actually no longer supported
(and was never in glibc) and should just be removed, but I'll do that
in a separate patch too. (The semantics the function intends to meet
are just logically contradictory/impossible).
