I'm not fussed on this bit - just don't jump thought hoops to include
build_options.c. Instead patch includes.h to include that particular
prototype.
This should result in a simpler patch.

Welcome to the abartlet-patch-submission process :-). As vance knows,
the process works like this:
- You propose a patch
- I read it, and write comments all over it, accusing you of being on
crack..
- you rewrite it, hopefully taking into account my comments, or telling
me why it's actually me that's on crack :-)
- We push it back and forth, and finally agree on a patch.
- I apply it, probably with a few gratuitous modifications.
