Will it build for you if you remove the DISCOVER_ONLY define surrounding
the write_back variable declaration? It's safe to declare, all the uses
of it are also disabled.

I can't get things to compile at all if I turn on discover mode on
Fedora so I can't test whether that's the only change needed.
