It was clear but both solutions are workarounds.  They can't be checked
into sources.redhat.com.

I am hashing this out with DJ.  It is the usual target vs host

the "OS" along with the tools.

My recent patch is one of two or three possible solutions.  I have to
see which one DJ prefers or if he has another solution.
