I just checked the repo, and it's definitely not on the branch, nor
was it ever on the branch.  I guess we "chickened out" installing it
for fear of breaking something (or we just forgot).

Ugh.  I'd lean towards putting it in ginclude and adding it to
EXTRA_HEADERS.  It wouldn't suprise me if OSF was the only vendor to
go this direction, so we might be able to reuse this on another port.

I'd try to avoid fixincludes if possible :-) :-)
