I realize we are still pretty early in the rc process but there are some 
seemingly significant problems building compat-wireless 2.6.35_rc2 
(which should be very close if not identical to the linus tree). I have 
copied the rt2x00 team because of the first error and Luiz for the second.

First and foremost this won't build at all:

error: implicit declaration of function 'KSEG1ADDR'

Error 1


Additionally but likely less important this driver seems to be defining 
variables overriding kernel headers, I can't imagine that is good.  Not 
sure if this is something that the driver needs to fix or needs to be 
fixed in compat-wireless but here it is:

I'll try to build the rc2 kernel and see if these errors are the same.

Thanks,
