:perhaps i wasn't clear. It is just a cosmetic issue.

:A kernel compile is now run as
:
: cc ... -DKERNEL -include opt_global.h ...
:
:so opt_global.h is not explicitly included by any file, and one could
:as well put a #define KERNEL into it.
:Now the only thing would be that opt_global.h contains almost nothing,
:which makes me think that it could also disappear at some point...
Ah! I understand. I'll be damned... didn't even notice that it was
