This patch, as part of the current 2.6.33 stable queue, breaks compiling
on i386 (CONFIG_LBDAF=y) for me (amd64 builds fine):

[...]
BUILD arch/x86/boot/bzImage
Root device is (254, 6)
Setup is 12700 bytes (padded to 12800 bytes).
System is 2415 kB
CRC db6fa5fa
Kernel: arch/x86/boot/bzImage is ready (#1)
ERROR: "__umoddi3" [drivers/md/raid456.ko] undefined!

reverting just this patch fixes the problem for me.

Current Debian/ unstable:
ii binutils 2.20.1-7 The GNU assembler, linker and binary utilities
ii gcc-4.4 4.4.3-9 The GNU C compiler
ii make 3.81-8 An utility for Directing compilation.
