IIRC I based "my" patch uppon your's rediffed one chunk for 2.4.26 and
added some more driver fixes (since our build system automatically
enables as many as possible ...

So your patch alone should not fix this error - unfortunatly I'm
already fixing so many user-space apps for gcc-3.4 that I have not the
time to track 2.4.27 right now.
