You're welcome - it was a bit frustrating to track down, but a simple
fix once I figured out what was going on.

BTW, there's still an issue that a 'make clean' in the toplevel kernel
dir will not clean up this feature dir, so if someone doesn't know to do
'cd tools/bpf && make clean' the main build may still break (I happened
upon this because my main kernel build broke :/). Couldn't figure out
how to convince make to fix that, so if you could take a look that would
be great! :)
