While porting Python over to CloudABI (https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-dev/2016-July/145708.html), we stumbled upon a small issue that caused the build to fail.

As CloudABI is a sandboxed environment, there currently isn't any support for modifying low-level network properties, such as TCP socket attributes. For this reason <netinet/tcp.h> is missing, just like on a couple of other platforms (Symbian, Cygwin, etc).

The attached patch extends the current '#ifndef' to also take CloudABI into consideration.

CloudABI is no more.
