Forgot to add this trivial little cleanup patch with my previous mail, I 
know you don't like patch dependancies, but this one depends on the 
previous one as that included stat.h, if you decide my previous patch 
isn't good, i can redo this one with stat.h included (and move atomic.h 
to the top to keep includes alphabetically ordered).
