Yes, known issue. Unfortunately we can't really do anything about it. BIND does
the right thing; it only calls that sockopt if it's defined. If it's not a
valid sockopt, it shouldn't *be* defined. But the kernel folks left it in
socket.h after they deprecated it, and there's no way to turn off the warning
message it generates. Hopefully some future kernel-headers release will have
fixed this.
