No, that's not how it works with open source. If _you_ want to keep a 
rarely necessary feature that makes maintenance a nightmare (see grep 
"#.*include" gcc/config/m68k/*.h|wc -l), it's _your_ task to spend some 
time on it (namely convert #include's to $tm_file in config.gcc). And note 
that this isn't just an isolated m68k issue, everyone doing compilerwide 
cleanups usually stumbles over m68k :-(.
