Yikes. Stephen, if it is not too much trouble could you move my tree up
just a notch (or a couple) in your awesome build system? I hadn't realized
this dependency (thought it is obvious in hindsight).

That won't fix Greg building his own linux-tree by itself, and the option of
using CONFIG_BROKEN should work just fine until 3.4 and which point that can be
reverted.
