There was a debate in my series here about my having to make things work with
'make headers', but thanks to John we resolved it the sane way by using the
tools/ stuff.

I _believe_ Peter is just using this thread as an example of a recent case of
people being asked to do this insanity (correct me if I'm wrong Peter) and it's
unrelated to pidfs in general.
