Yeah, but that's basically just luck.

As you can see it uses a few uapi headers, but not many, and we seem to get
away with it.

On powerpc instead we have:

compilation terminated.

So things start to go badly when we include asm/sigcontext.h. It just comes
down to the exact sequence the headers are included, and we can't do much about
that.
