okay, after Arthurs input regarding the script, I'll
investigate this a little more and come up with a more
detailed list of duplicate includes, maybe categorized
by type of duplicate inclusion direct/indirect and by
subsystem/architecture if that is desired?
any input here would be appreciated, even if it just
is something like: "hey, we do not want this kind of
cleanup done in the kernel" ...
best,
Herbert
