I don't think that's entirely true with regard to the include files.

I assume you typoed and meant "cleaned up kernel include files as

Why does this happen?
Well, the reason is that in order to support Linux specific features, you need
to include Linux specific include files (the Linux kernel include files). As
these include files are currently not written in vanilla (ANSI) C but in a
