I don't see that--which system would be breaking?  Except for one
addition of #include <netinet/if_ether.h> (which brings that one
file into line with several others), this patch should be practically
a no-op. Admittedly, reversing the glibc version check will cause
non-Linux systems to start including net/ethernet.h, but those applets
are already broken on those systems because they're using Linux-specific
features and header files.

The only serious case I can think of that might break with this would be
alternate libcs on Linux, but given that most aim to be compatible with
glibc, which is it? If musl (or any others you're aware of) doesn't have
net/ethernet.h, I can add a clause in platform.h for it.
