This is the exact reason why I stoped my porting efforts... I don't think it's
a good idea to start patching and modifying the system header files...

It may break so much else, and we end up with a totaly broken (build) system...

I'll think it would be a vise desition to just wait for jim to finish the
egcs/ldso/libc packages, before we start porting the really difficult packages
(those that one can get working, by modifying the system headers...)
