I thought about it, but actually I'd rather pick Shubhrajyoti's patches
first. We don't know where Julia's patch will be going at this point,
and other patches depend on the patches Shubhrajyoti sent, which I do
not want to delay. Julia's changes, if applied, will touch over 200
drivers anyway, so 4 more or less don't make any difference. I also
suspect that Julia's scripts won't catch the non-C99 initializations,
so she probably won't see them Shubhrajyoti's patches are applied -
that's one more reason to apply them immediately.
