[PATCH]: problem: pc_keyb.h

Hello Martin!

Why can't I include pc_keyb.h directtly into a C program ?
I need that for a part of GPM.

nico@flapp:~/computer/programming/c/test > gcc pc_keyb.h.c
In file included from pc_keyb.h.c:3:
/usr/include/linux/pc_keyb.h:127: parse error before `wait_queue_head_t'

/usr/include/linux/pc_keyb.h:127: warning: no semicolon at end of struct
or union
/usr/include/linux/pc_keyb.h:130: parse error before `}'

When adding

#define wait_queue_head_t struct wait_queue *

(stolen from compatmac.h)

before including pc_keyb.h it runs fine.

So I suggest the following:

================================================
flapp:/usr/include/linux # diff -u compatmac.h.orig compatmac.h

-- compatmac.h.orig Fri Aug 31 13:14:38 2001

+++ compatmac.h Fri Aug 31 13:14:50 2001
