--- cut here ---
#include <sys/socket.h>

int getsockname(int, struct sockaddr *, socklen_t *);

int x() {return 0;}
--- cut here ---

If your compiler insists on size_t instead of socklen_t, this will fail with
an error.

My test (since linux doesn't care):

test.c:
extern int x(int);

extern int x(long);

% gcc -c test.c
~
test.c:3: conflicting types for `x'
test.c:1: previous declaration of `x'
% echo $?
~
1

Enjoy.
