Exim used to place a hack in os.h-Linux which covered this case:

/* Fudge added because this Linux doesn't appear to have a definition
for ip_options in /usr/include/linux/ip.h. */

#define ip_options options

In 1.91, it doesn't seem to be added anymore. I put it in by hand, and
it compiled fine on my libc5 Debian system.
