Adding #include <linux/sched.h> gets me the flag definitions but
unshare() is still only available "guarded" by _GNU_SOURCE. Damn.

toys/unshare.c: In function ‘unshare_main’:
toys/unshare.c:42:2: warning: implicit declaration of function ‘unshare’ [-Wimplicit-function-declaration]
make: *** [toybox] Error 1

gf at gf:~/git/toybox$ cd /usr/include
gf at gf:/usr/include$ grep -rw unshare *
bits/sched.h:extern int unshare (int __flags) __THROW;
