The distribution makers probably have changed this already so the
clueless people get the change once they update.  Those who do it
themself know how to patch a file.  No problem either.

I certainly don't want to see fixinclude running.  It's not necesary
in future and therefore only wastes peoples time.  It's a completely
different situation for commercial Unixes where we don't have
influence on the next release.
