Note, that I compiled FreeS/WAN without problems on Debian potato with a
2.2.15 kernel and gcc 2.95.2 for ix86.
Back to your problem...EWW, why is this thing using system headers for the
kernel!? It should not do that, that is where the problem lies, and you
will continue to have such problems so long as this occurs. The reason
being:
a) egcs64 is not designed to compile for user space, it is only meant for
kernels
b) sparc64 has 32bit userspace, so using headers from userspace to compile
the kernel (which is 64bit) is *going* to have problems.
I have the freeswan patch, I'll see what I can do for this.
