As long as the end result is the same, ie. we get an empty definition
that always returns false then yeah that's fine by me.

The two pgtable headers are included eventually by our top-level
pgtable.h, and that is included by over 100 files. So I worry this is
going to break the build somewhere in some obscure configuration.

I'll push it through some test builds and see what happens.
