I don't know whether these issues are new to you all, but
anyway, here they go:
Version: 2.5.32 (patched from 2.5.31)
1. Module 8250.o does not compile due to syntax errors, but a little
kludge made it work:

-#if (LINUX_VERSION_CODE < 0x020300)

/* Unfortunate, but Linux 2.2 needs async_icount defined here and
* it got moved in 2.3 */
#include <linux/serial.h>
2. loop.o cannot be compiled as a module, because it results in:
loop.o: unresolved symbol balance_dirty_pages
when trying to insmod it.
3. Strange errors (no such errors with 2.4.x, same config)
