Looks good!

I'm pretty sure you need them. Glibc provides wrappers for them
when they are not there, but the wrappers not completely reliable.

This looks really strange. The commit that introduced recvmmsg (a2e27255)
added it to both socketcall and as a separate syscall in a number of
architectures, without a good reason for it. I guess it's too late
to change that now, but we should at least fix the script so we
don't report it missing when socketcall is set.

However, if your unistd.h has defined __NR_recvmmsg before, you should
probably add it to the syscall table, just in case that someone built
a binary with that number.
