There are just two definitions that are shared but the resulting combined 
file is resonably small. Putting these two arch headers together shows 
that further unifications requires a unification of the per cpu / pda 
handling between both arches (zero based or some variation thereof).

x86.git testing found a build failure due to this patch:

  include/asm/current.h: Assembler messages:
  include/asm/current.h:4: Error: no such instruction: `struct task_struct'

with this config:

  http://redhat.com/~mingo/misc/config-Tue_May__6_14_45_51_CEST_2008.bad

i suspect the __ASSEMBLY__ protections in the unified file are not wide 
enough?

Duh. yes. The x86_64 __ASSEMBLY__ protection is no longer there. We could 
move the task_struct def back into the arch specific portion. Sigh.
