Well, it works in that it allows compilation to proceed.  It results
in ./libhw64/9pfs/virtio-9p-handle.o not being built, since AT_EMPTY_PATH
can't be found through /usr/include/fcntl.h, even though it can in
/usr/include/linux/fcntl.h.  I guess that is, unfortunately, the right
thing to do.

Oh hey, I think I've found the bug in the debian package causing
that problem.  Grr.
