I still get errors for 2.1.35 if I include parallel port support *without*
plug-n-play:

make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1
Happily, It does compile and run if I include plug-n-play, at least
on my new Micron here at work. What it may do on my 6 year old 486/33C
Gateway at home is another story (haven't tried it).
