Checking the patches, it was Marcelo in 2.4, not Linus in 2.5.
aic7xxx/aicasm/Makefile had .NOTPARLLEL (3.79 feature) for a while,
until I cleaned up the aic7xxx mess.

Linus mailed some 2.4 patches on l-k that used $(if) (3.78 feature),
when I pointed out in private mail that $(if) was not available on 3.77
he changed the patch.  I did not keep his reply but it was along the
lines of "I use 3.79.1 and did not check if it worked on 3.77".
