Yes it does. That's exactly what I also did to make it build, but I didn't send in a patch as I wasn't sure that 4 (sizeof(u32)) is the right factor for a 64-bit arch. > I've CCed lkml and Marcelo for their consideration.

However, as also stated in #329355 by fs, "the amd64 port does not support 2.4 kernels, and there are no plans to change this", so I guess this is not-a-bug for debian/x86_64. \n\n -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Nikos "Nikolai" Ntarmos iD8DBQFDMrgIm6J1ac+VFgoRAhbeAKCF2R6VkcHCsTYalKNnuvZeILlfMwCeMQDu 0C9BehFcgeBdor2abF+2wmo= =Ihfo -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
