The way I split it, and what took me so long to split it, was that I
wanted each patch to be able to compile. There was one two-way
dependency, I think that was between patches 7 and 8. But the most part,
each addition of a patch allowed for a successful compile.  I didn't
test running those though ;)

I can work on splitting it better. After pushing out the lguest64
patches (coming soon).
