Severity: normal
Compiling the kernel fails when it gets to the pcxx.c module. A section of the compiler output follows. The compilation continues OK if this module is removed from the config. The pcxx module is selected to be included by default.

indeed the pcxx was removed lately, but only after 2.6.11.
it is obsoleted by the epca driver.
so i'll close that as not supported by upstream.
please reopen if that driver doesn't work for you?
thanks for your feedback.
