This didn't end up being _too_ painful, though it did take a bit of time
to hunt down all of the guilty parties. I've pushed out what I have now,
which you can see at:

http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/lethal/sh-2.6.git;a=commitdiff;h=f15cbe6f1a4b4d9df59142fc8e4abb973302cf44

It's been holding up to all of the random builds I've thrown at it so
far, so there shouldn't be any really nasty surprises left over.

I'm glad git supports renames.. :-)
