I think the change is correct. The POSIX information I checked
(http://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/009695399/basedefs/pwd.h.html for
example) say that "The gid_t and uid_t types shall be defined as
described in <sys/types.h>."
But I wonder if these are the only files that needed fixing? uid_t seems
to be used all over the place..
