I've got a curious problem on my hands (I think. Maybe somebody can fix
it in an instant):
the latest ACPI patch refuses to build with my box.
Under gcc 2.95.4 I get:
ld -m elf_i386 -T

drivers/acpi/acpi.o(.text+0x28667): undefined reference to `__ucmpdi2'
drivers/acpi/acpi.o(__ksymtab+0x208): undefined reference to `acpi_exit'
And under 3.0 (debian unstable latest, 3.0.4-pre020127), the errors
about __ucmpdi2 disappear, but the acpi_exit one remains. acpi_init,
which is a very very similarly defined, constructed, etc function is
fine. Somebody please help me (my system depends on ACPI PCI IRQ routing).
