No worries, we all do silly things like that from time to time,
myself included.

Ok, so 4.4BSD introduced these years ago. Now it rings a bell, but I
can't find the relevant thread I'm thinking of (google has become
almost useless as a mailing list search engine in recent times).

I suspect that we are going to need an

#undef LIST_HEAD

somewhere in include/libxfs.h, libxfs/libxfs_priv.h and/or
include/list.h just to ensure we don't use the system definitions
(with a large comment explaining it).

Cheers,

Dave.
