Thanks, I'll remove them in this patch.

It's two logical changes, thus two patches. Reviewers find that this
makes it easier to review.

Given the number of platform glues that I'm modifying, I don't want
to change some of them using one big all encompassing patch and
others as a set of logical changes - that would be totally insane
to manage.
