I had promised to look into that, but my paperwork with the FSF is
still pending. Feel free to contact me for bouncing ideas or whatever.

As for this set - the changes to the kernel header structs and naming

loader anyway. Could you possibly break those out as a separate set,
which could then be merged earlier?
