(1) Got the following oops upon trying to log in to a box running the
newly compiled 1.3.26 (it happens every time, but only for the first
person to log in). Particulars: gcc v2.5.8, libc5.6.27, mostly modular
kernel, tcsh v6.04.

(2) Also, with both 1.3.25 and 1.3.26 and ppp v2.2.0, any attempt to use
ppp gets
ioctl(SIOCGPPPSTATS): No such device
This whether ppp is loaded as a module or compiled in. Not sure whether
this is a kernel problem, or a problem with ppp 2.2. Haven't tried it
with an older version of ppp.
Also, netstat fails to list unix sockets in use, although they show up
in /proc/net/unix. Problem with netstat?
(3) The newly modularized logitech mouse driver fails to compile
(whether it's compiled as a module or not). I fixed it by including
mouse.h in busmouse.c and changing an occurrence of 'bus_mous' to
'bus_mouse'. Not sure whether this is the right way to fix it or not,
but it works now.
(4) When loading modules, I still get `bad_user_access_length undefined'
(or something like that) unless I add it to ksyms.c.
Cheers,
Andrew
