Re: v2.4.14 kernel compile problem

This is a kernel problem, nothing to do with Debian. It has been posted to the linux-kernel list, but no fix has been posted yet. This may be another case where they fix it and make another release in a SHORT period of time.
Commenting out the two references to the function and recompiling seems to work.

I have just tried to compile a clean source (without any patches) of

I get the following error message at that last part of the make bzImage
when it is creating the final kernel image:

I suspect others will have the same problem.  Any idea of a fix?
