Ok, after some more investigation I have to say: nothing. I saw a build failure of a package from experimental due to it (http://experimental.debian.net/fetch.php?pkg=evas&arch=hppa&ver=0.9.9.042-2&stamp=1210204264&file=log&as=raw) but the source seems to include sys/user.h without actually using it. So the header is useless in its current form but that doesn't seems to be really that important, I will downgrade this bug and file one against evas to remove the include.
