Subject: 2.5.41 : ipv6 compile failure?

tried to compile 2.5.41 with ipv6 support , i get the following build
failure:

<snip>

gcc -Wp,-MD,net/ipv6/.addrconf.o.d -D__KERNEL__ -Iinclude -Wall

This is fixed already in DaveM's tree and I believe in Linus's too, so
wait for 2.5.42.

Known failure fixed in Linus's tree already.

Change the __constant_hto*() to plain hto*() in the case
statements on the lines the compiler complains about.
