that's fine ... one of the other things i wanted to add were checks to make 
sure the exported headers did not contain [us](8|16|32|64) references, but 
there's headers which refer to these in comment blocks or use them as members 
of structs (like the netfilter code) so i couldnt add that check without 
passing things through the preprocessor ... perhaps your perl code would 
better accommodate this, perhaps not ;)
