This is a good argument for putting the export at the definition site ;)

Debatable - if we omit the ifdefs, it fails at link time or depmod time. 
The ifdefs will make it warn (but not fail) at compile-time.  Given that
the warning is non-fatal, the ifdefs don't add much value and are best
omitted.
