building on case-insensitive file systems

Building linux-2.6.7 on a case-insensitive filesystem is currently not possible, because the build system requires the two files:
arch/$(ARCH)/kernel/vmlinux.lds.s
arch/$(ARCH)/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S
whose filename differ only in case.

Here is a patch which fixes this, by changing the build system to use"vmlinux.lds.asm" instead of "vmlinux.lds.s":
http://mirror.vtx.ch/lfs/patches/downloads/linux/linux-2.6.7- build_on_case_insensitive_fs-1.patch

Please consider applying.

Thanks,

Martin Schaffner
