That is not what I mean. Of course that fixes the build, that's not
the problem. But it would be incorrect and unsafe to blindly copy the
hash without investigating whether there were any changes to
Lisp_Buffer_Objfwd that would need to be reflected in pdumper.c.
That's the whole point of the hash check: force people to adapt
pdumper.c upon any struct change. That is what "If you change one of
these structures, check that the pdumper.c code is still valid" means:
whoever changed Lisp_Buffer_Objfwd (i.e., *not* me) needs to update
pdumper.c.
