Not exactly.  The patch which makes them nops went into 3.8.  Now
there's a patch queued in, Gregs tree I presume, to remove them all and
the #defines which causes the compile failure.

Ah, thanks ... I've been on holiday for a while, so I did miss that.

If it's a simple gcc bug, just ignore it.

I do need you to redo the patches to remove the __dev annotations,

Greg's tree merges before mine in the next merge window.
