ok, the answer seems to be `don't do that then'.  i get a buildable tree
by doing `cvs co linux; cd linux; cvs up -rLINUS_240_PREMERGE'.  I also
get a buildable tree by doing `cvs up -r LINUS_240_FIXUP'.  One is before
the merge and one is after.

sorry for stuffing up the merge :-(  ironic that i was trying to avoid
inconveniencing people...

err... which changes are those?  The sys32_select change richard made
just before i started breaking the tree looks like it's there. I guess
the change to sim700 that richard made won't be there, but as long as we
get this mess sorted out soon, it isn't going to be a big deal to find it.
