[Click] Error while installing click (on Linux kernel 2.6.38-8) 'fixincludes.pl exection failed'.

[Joonwoo Park]

Right...  For some reason I was thinking I patched patchless for
2.6.38 but turned out that the patchset was for 2.6.37.
2.6.37 should be working but I can also see fixincludes.pl fails with
2.6.38.  expand_initializer() is dying.
Will try to fix it as soon as I got time.  Sorry for confusion.
Your patch will be very welcome too.
