Re: [PATCH] Fix up headers so we can munge them for use by userspace.

["Serge E. Hallyn" <serue-r/Jw6+rmf7HQT0dZR+AlfA@public.gmane.org>]

I'm sorry, I'm really pretty ignorant when it comes to userspace includes.
Can you give a little more explanation as to:
	1. why we don't need sys/user.h, and why it was included originally?
	2. why we need sys/types.h first?  I don't see that mentioned in
		the linux/types.h.
	3. how much of this will be distro-dependent?

Don't read this as questioning their correctness, just as my curiosity.

thanks,
