No system headers need to be changed: you can just patch 
powerpc/types.h with the extra __SANE_USERSPACE__ define (or any 
suitable name) and the KVM tool should work as-is.

The beauty of tools/kvm/ being integrated into the kernel tree.

Really, if that works and if the PowerPC folks agree then we 
have an immediate, fully adequate, instantly applicable 
solution.

Thanks,
