:Does it compile if you add

    Bleh.  I'll run a full compile of HEAD on 1.8.  I was scratching my
    head as to why dd even needs those headers, but apparently it tries
    to write-enable the label area for block devices.  Kinda makes me wonder
    what the point of having a write-protected label area is in the first
    place if the only program one is likely to use to mess around with it
    just unconditionally write-enables the area!
