I don't think so. Of course, it would simplify my life, but then it appears
everyone using any of those kernels already knows what to do. So all the patch
really does is to make my life easier, at the cost of adding risk for everyone else.

I'll see if I can update my scripts to use the correct compiler for 3.0 instead.
