Comment 5 for bug 134222

Not only are some files of zero length, also files are missing.
This results e.g in v4l not building on debian/ ubuntu systems, due to failure to compile the firedtv driver.

Several bugs in launchpad describe workarounds to disable this driver manually.

Specifically:
/usr/src/linux-headers-2.6.28-19-generic/include/config/ieee1394
contains:

In this directory, at least the following files should be present:
