:The attached patch probably deserves some discussion, so I'm posting it
:here first rather than straight to the submit list.

:The idea is to enhance the distinction between kernel source code and
:userland source code. (This started as sort of an offshoot of removing
:parameter names from function protoypes in userland-accessible headers.)
* libdisk should probably still be made part of the build.
* I'm on the fence in regards to sys/dir.h. If it is possible I
would prefer that it be left working.
Generally speaking, the stuff looks pretty good. I think it is
commitable with the above two changes, with the provisio that we
may have to revert additional pieces of it if we start getting
complaints about ports.
