Comment (by djowel):
Allow me to reiterate that the proper patch for this is not a global
rename of nil into something else. nil is part of the interface of fusion
(and phoenix). It will break backward compatibility of we simply rename
nil to, say, nil_. The acceptable patch is to do a rename *ONLY* for the
affected libraries (e.g. LEDA) and platforms with a proper warning that
nil is being renamed and will therefore break compatibility where/if it's
used on such platforms or with such libraries.
