cannot compile 2.4.4-pre6. This may have been reported, but I
haven't seen it.
Thanks,
Jeff.

There was a solution mentioned Saturday.

in asm-alpha/compiler.h you will find a definition. The above
solution created a new file (asm-i386/compiler.h) with the definition,
I just added it to rwsem.c.
BTW: 2.4.4-pre6 is the fastest kernel yet! YMMV
