hang on; The sizeof (and offsetof) values I listed were obtained either
from /usr/bin/crash (on the T5) or from simple printk's of the structures
in the case of the v440. And they *are* different, and the numbers
match the values dumped on the console on pnaic. So isnt there actually
a problem here?
