Because I am inconsistent about which ones I'm mentioning. Strictly
speaking, I should redescribe all the patches because they've been
renumbered, but that strikes me as excessive.

Gotta build *static* libraries with this flag so *shared* libs won't
break...got it. I'll dig around in xc/config/cf/linux.cf and see if
there's something I can diddle for that.
I'm not sure which would be a greater mark of insanity: wanting to
understand why, or not wanting to.
