Well, I doubt someone really includes stuff like input/bitops (beside
XOrg/mysql then) so the impact isnt felt.
Another reason is that people have stoped using the supplied kernel
headers (like we/glibc and alot of others) so their "misstakes" aint
reported.

My report is here: http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=6345
