Ah, agreed on both counts.

Regarding the change in vmxassist and hvmloader:  I was being overly cautious, setting CFLAGS to a non-empty string to be sure it wasn't defaulted to something else, but indeed setting to an empty string as was done before is sufficient.  So I have thrown out the changes to both of those Makefiles.

nsplitd is to be treated the same as miniterm, correct?  So you should both of their respective patches.  (When packaging, we of course would build those things with the same flags, and for the same architecture, but that is a patch I can carry separately .)
