Don't see why, we're already not binary compatible with glibc (or with our own 
previous versions until 1.00), and this value comes out of a header we 
supply...

While we're at it, is there any reason for dev_t to equal glibc's size instead 
of linux's?  (Linus expanded dev_t to 32 bits rather than 64, because he 
wanted it to be a cookie and wanted to _discourage_ people from doing things 
like encoding scsi luns in there.  But alas, glibc is partly written for hurd, 
which has much insanity.)
