It just feels sloppy. I was purging some dependencies from a source
file and thought I had fixed it all (by only depending on <stdint.h>),
but later found out I had some "grub_printf" in there even though I
didn't pull in any GRUB headers. In other words, it makes writing code
which cares for it's dependencies more error prone.
