sorry, different failure.

test_io.c: In function ‘test_open’:
test_io.c:198: error: expected identifier before ‘(’ token
make[2]: *** [test_io.o] Error 1

bash-3.2# cat -n lib/ext2fs/test_io.c | grep 198
   198                  retval = test_io_backing_manager->(open)(name,
flags, &data->real);

*shrug* maybe I'm just dense and/or worn out today.  I'll go with what
works.
