Nope, It does not include linux/socket.h.
It only includes the following:

#include <features.h>
#include <stddef.h>
#include <socketbits.h>

And noone of them includes linux/socket.h

I made a rather crude insert into hba.h

struct ucred {
       unsigned int   pid;
       unsigned int   uid;
       unsigned int   gid;
};

And with that it passed both the compilation and regression tests.
