I needed that to form a baseline to backport the fix for CAN-2005-0136.
The previous baseline had incompatible changes in ivt.S. I'm not sure
how trivial/validatable it would be to code a fix without this common
baseline. If that's something we want to do, I can look into it - but
I'd be more comfortable using this code since it has received testing
upstream.
