Yeah, that is a better idea...
Of course, any change like this will require modifications to the patches. But
the maintainers should repatch for 2.4.0 anyway, and this is a very minor
change. However, there are likely many other places in the kernel Makefile
system that have these problems. To whoever is doing the Makefile system
rewrite (Keith Owens?), make sure that this sort of mess is not part of the new
system (from your plan, it looks like it won't be -- good).
Thanks,
Kenneth
