That's basically what I did (2 instances in the file had to be replaced) --
#ifndef RTF_LLINFO
/* Insert code here with 0. */
#else
/* Insert code here with RTF_LLINFO. */
#endif
The code checks to see if sysctl exists, and then defaults to Linux-y
behavior, so other OS'es with proper sysctl support could be broken by
this change.
I tested this out with Steam and wine-doors, but unfortunately I ran
into OpenGL issues that prevented me from playing Steam games -_-...
Cheers,
