I though about that too (defining AF_INET, AF_UNIX, SOCK_STREAM, SOCK_DGRAM, IPPROTO_TCP, IPPROTO_UDP, IPPROTO_RAW, and such (tenths more)),
but I *still* think it should be in the ".so"  and not in the )lib 5 "FILE_IO"

If the actual values for these constants are not standardised (i.e. they can change on different operating systems) then of course, they need to be in the .so. As for the particular values, I have to admit that I have no idea if they ever change.

That said, I'd still prefer variables rather than strings. The values of the variables could be retrieved from a call into the .so and initialised on library load though.
