Subject: uml-patch-2.6.4-1

This patch updates UML to 2.6.4. Besides the update, there were the following
changes since the last patch:
a bug which caused either a crash in the kernel or a BUG at exit.c:793
was fixed
a bug which caused a crash when a process tried to dump core was fixed
the hang early in boot on GHz hosts is gone
various other

The 2.6.4-1 UML patch is available at
http://www.user-mode-linux.org/mirror/uml-patch-2.6.4-1.bz2

BK users can pull my 2.5 repository from
http://www.user-mode-linux.org:5000/uml-2.5

I think it's cleaner to handle this in your .emacs file. Here is what
I use:

(add-to-list 'auto-mode-alist '("/home/petero/kernel.*/.*\\.[ch]$" . linux-c-mode))

(defun linux-c-mode ()
"C mode with adjusted defaults for the Linux kernel."
(interactive)
(c-mode)
(c-set-style "K&R")
(setq c-basic-offset 8))

This way it will work for all kernel files, not just the ones
containing special emacs comments.
