Oh, and one more point in favor of merging this:  they've been in
use in Andrew Victor's 2.6 AT91 patches since last November.

That would be yet another reason why nobody has noticed this build
problem before.  It's not just me; almost everyone doing AT91 work
is *already using* these two patches, and has been doing so for most
of the last year.
