The magic for this would need something quite similar to the attached
patch. It is incomplete, and besides curl.h needing to #include
types.h most probably other parts of the build process would need
adjustments. But I think it is enough to get the idea of one way it
could probably be done. Sure it can be further improved.

I'm not sure if we actually want the 'magic way' or if it would just
be better to let the user manually include the definition in curl.h
when he actually needs it.

Or even further get rid of 'socklen_t' in curl.h and just use 'size_t' ?

Not sure which option has less cons.
