Right. For the record - since we just talked about it - I was thinking
of putting it into a special section so that we could easily write a
script to generate the pot file from the kernel binary after doing
"allyesconfig" or collecting it from modules or so.

Thinking of modules though - do we need to adjust the module loading
code to load a new section? I'll have to look into that.
