Hmm... well, doing it fixed several build errors and numerous warnings in the
USB drivers (due to changes in which headers include which other headers). Oh
well, maybe it's just the funky back-ported USB driver that incorrectly
references the system headers. How else am I supposed to keep those headers
up-to-date? copy them whenever I build a new kernel? Things like Mac-on-Linux
didn't much like them being out of date w.r.t. my kernel.
