Don't forget the part about adding a comment saying that xor.c does in fact need to come before raid5.c. This is the part that most likely will not happen, so that two months from now nobody will remember it and eventually it will trip us up again.
That's one of the things that our infamous LINK_FIRST infrastructure would have done: pointed out special cases automatically so that even *without* a comment people would look at it and immediately know "there is *something* link-order-dependent here". Oh well.
