Why must the ABI headers be included by both kernel and user headers to be sane? Hmmm ... I'm not sure I want to ask that, actually. I have this feeling from the tone of your assertion that you can explain to me why such a header organization is the only one that fits your mental model of how these things are structured, but that communication between us may break down when you try to convince me that your mental model for this is the only correct one. Oh well ... we'll see where this goes. -- I won't rest till it's the best ...
