True, but it was still a bug in my patch---it _should_ give a kernel
that compiles and works.

OK, sorry about that one. I forgot to include your additional patch
that fixes a bug in ext2 w.r.t. to large files. I think I caught up
now, though.
A new patch (hopefully complete & working) is now at:
ftp://ftp.azstarnet.com/pub/linux/axp/sys/axp-diffs-2.0+2.gz
Like for the previous patch, the same caveats about this being alpha
Alpha software apply, but if the patch breaks something, please let me
know. There are a few additional things in there now:
- Harald's fix to vremap (well, a slightly different version
is there, actually)
- patches to make the kernel compilable with the ELF tools (sorry,
the kernel doesn't actually work yet but I'm working on that... ;-)
Cheers,
