There are two things in here that I'm not sure are such good ideas:
Add multiple include guards to all header files.
I think this encourages sloppy use of header files. I'd much prefer to
have some standard ordering of header files that we adopt.
Get as much out of the x-host and xm-host.h files into
autoconf tests, system.h, etc., as possible.
- I would give even odds that it can all go.
This is tricky. Remember that they are also used for building the library
and in the cross-compiler case you can't get them from autoconf.
