MW) Well bully for you! The only information of any importance would
MW) be the kernel version ( 2.0.36p12 ) and the existence of
MW) "istring" in tkgen.c Besides, if you were compiling 2.0.36
MW) (which I doubt), you shouldn't be using egcs anyway (on Alan's
MW) advice). In fact, having now found the problem, there's no way
MW) you could have been trying to compile 2.0.36-
MW) The proc istring is defined in scripts/header.tk which comes
MW) with 2.1.x, but is _NOT_ in the patches alan published. Copying
MW) that file into the 2.0.36 tree gets rid of the error message,
MW) but I haven't yet been able to test whether or not it works
MW) properly.
The patch I sent Alan to add the string options from 2.1.x to
facilitate the firmware loading for Maui, MultiSound, etc. in the
2.0.x modular patch did not get fully applied. Here is the missing
piece (sent to Alan, but he is currently on vacation until sometime
next week):
