Recently, iptables has added support for transparent proxies using a new TPROXY target on Linux2.  This requires a new option in setsockopts, IP_TRANSPARENT.  There's some background on the feature here:

I've created a patch to the header regen scripts on Linux2 that should expose this functionality to Python.  They'll need to be run to generate the headers again.

I notice that `_socket` doesn't include the names of socket options from this location, instead using a local database.  I had trouble trying to get `linux/in.h` included in that file, so I included a work-around which defines it statically for now.

It needs some work but it causes a lot of breakage when I try to do this -- and I don't know enough about the Linux sockets API to fix this properly.
