Bug#843089: mdk3: FTBFS: 'u_int16_t' undeclared

Source: mdk3
Version: 6.0-2
Severity: important
Justification: fails to build from source

Build of mdk3 for several architectures failed with a cascade of
errors starting with

  radiotap/../byteorder.h:25:4: error: 'u_int16_t' undeclared (first use in this function)

The issue appears to be that byteorder.h checks for a predefinition of
the legacy "linux" macro, which GCC leaves undefined on these
architectures, rather than the more universal __linux__.

Could you please take a look?

Thanks!
