Please no.  Progress would be teaching the remaining compilers to
autocompute header dependencies so there would be no need to maintain
a master header list at all. I would understand if the headers had
been falling out of date and this were a way of saying "we give up",
but given that that is not happening, why would this change be a good
thing?

My comments were only about explaining what I found hard to understand
in the commit message. The patch was good. Please don't retaliate this
way. :)

Hope that helps,
Jonathan
