What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. N/A
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
N/A

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
I'm using an Arduino MEGA2560 + SIM900 Shield (make & model not relevant in 
this scenario) 

Please provide any additional information below.
I'm using an Arduino MEGA2560 + iTead Studio's ICOMCat SIM900 Shield (what I 
could get in my country) but I'm sure this will apply to any SIM900 or similar 
shield. 
The SIM900 communicates via hardware Serial2 (with a special jumper cable 
between the Arduino & shield. The problem is that I need to import the 
SoftwareSerial library with my code, which adds extra unnecessary code and 
libraries to the Sketch. 

Please tell me how to completely remove the dependacy for the SoftwareSerial.h 
library, or make it so that if one use a MEGA (or similar) with hardware 
serial, that the SoftwareSerial.h library is completely ignored in all the 
".cpp" and ".h" files. I tried to remove it myself, but there's too much 
underlying code which depends on it.

The idea is to be independent from google code that is going to be suppressed.
Now the support is getting better ;)
