Hi guys,

I finally took the chance to compile v2.1.106 today, but just got an
compile error: (see following output)

gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -fno-strength-reduce -m486 -DCPU=486 -DUTS_MACHINE='"i386"' -c -o init/version.o init/version.c
set -e; for i in kernel drivers mm fs net ipc lib arch/i386/kernel arch/i386/mm arch/i386/lib; do make -C $i; done

make[1]: *** [process.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.1.106/arch/i386/kernel'
make: *** [linuxsubdirs] Error 2

I'm using egcs-1.0.3a, binutils-2.9.1.0.6 with this kernel. What gives? Is
there something I've forgotten?!

Cheers,
Alex
