Keith, you mistake Matt's fix for an "obvious" fix that turns
old style inits into new ones. Matt's fix does not change
initialization order and certainly cannot be corrected by
moving object files about.
I tried to change the thing to new style init and it did not
quite work. The original problem was fixed but now the system
hangs when it tries to initialize IP loopback. Perhaps irda0
gets in the way.
The suggestion about the link order is very relevant for the
attached patch. I need Dag to pick it where I left it.
