This will handle the situation where COMPAT_OSF1 is built-in to the 
kernel without includine COMPAT_LINUX.

But it does not handle the situation where COMPAT_OSF1 andCOMPAT_LINUX 
are both omitted from the kernel and loaded as non-built-in modules.

For the latter situation, we need a way for compat_linux.kmod to require 
compat_osf1.kmod.  It's not sufficient to simply add the linux files to 
the osf1 module's Makefile as that would result in duplicated symbols 
between the two modules (preventing both from being loaded at the same 
time).
