Since applying those diffs has no direct effect on the binaries built by our source tree anyway (even if we kept the ATT Makefiles), someone is going to need to manually make the corresponding changes to ON's Makefiles (if changes are even appropriate).
Let's ignore the ATT Makefiles for a while. Are there other files you'd like to see removed? A list based on Roland's annotated list would be nice.
