It's utterly impossible for me to remember the dependencies. It's
utterly impossible for me to remember the make incantation to test
this bloody things - especially as I need to limit it otherwise it
takes a very long time to test.

The whole bloody thing is just too sodding difficult.

I'm not going to bother with this patch set any more. Too frustrated
with this piecemeal approach and the crappy slow tooling and the
idiotic incomprehensible error messages it spits out.
