That seems sensible; presumably no other current users are on linux_m68k
or this would have been sorted already.  I will keep it in the Debian
version where there can't be any conflict with NetBSD users.

It seems that the patch needs to depend not only on being m68k but also
on being linux.  What defined variable can we use to distinguish between
the two?
