The main reason there's a delta is that people don't manage to
maintain the in-tree copy perfectly (at least, they certainly
haven't done so for this past year).  So we need to do that
to clean up every now and then.

A secondary reason is that the set of typedefs we absorb from
system include files changes over time.
