Hmmm... I don't use Buildroot and all the systems around here are Intel, so I
guess the most useful thing I can do is try to audit the header files. The
first bullet point looks pretty straightforward. I assume that all the
second bullet point means #ifdef-ing out prototypes (and possibly related
#defines) for things in the *.h files that are already #ifdefed out in the
*.c files? Or is there more to it than that?
As for "properly versioned buildroot", I don't know what's involved with that.
(Does it have its own todo list, or will that just be a CGI snapshot known to
build with what becomes 2.6.27?)
Also, if we get the first two done, could we maybe have an -rc (since
everything else is testing)?
