SILO has some special cases. For example it wants to use the UFS filesystem headers, but just to get the on-disk datastructures it require requires way too many inappropriate dependant other kernel headers. So we couldn't get anyone to add the ufs*.h bits to the exported header list. Which was fair enough, and we therefore added an appropriate copy to the SILO sources. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe sparclinux" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
