Since I do not know enough about the kernel source code I have not
attempted to look at the problem, I just see something is wrong (a bit of
a newbie in kernel-terms...)
While trying to compile kernel (2.1.129, unpatched) I got the following
error:
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2
-fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -fno-strength-reduce -m486 -malign-loops=2
