The vendor in this case is/uses an old BSD (Darwin). Which isn't to say it
shouldn't be updated, but is actually the case. Recent Darwin releases
properly support the newer type names, but older versions don't. Since we're
primarily interested in compatibility with recent Darwin, it makes sense to
update once we've finished the merge.
