Bug#429625: linux-source-2.6.18 build fails on hppa - missing patch?

["mulvihill@tiscali.it" <mulvihill@tiscali.it>]

Package: linux-source-2.6.18
Version: 2.6.18.dfs

Kernel source does not compile on parisc (HP 712/60).
I am running kernel 2.6.8
libc version 2.3.6.ds1-13
gcc version 4:4.1.1-15

Should there not be a hppa/parisc-specific patch to apply to the
standard debian kernel source package? No such patch appears to
be available in etch.

To reproduce error, unpack sources, copy .config from pre-packaged
kernel image, and make-kpkg

boris:/share/linux-source-2.6.18# cp /boot/config-2.6.18-4-parisc .
config
boris:/share/linux-source-2.6.18# make-kpkg --initrd linux-image
