Trying to compile 2.6.3 but banging my head against a wall:

as root:
'apt-get install kernel-source-2.6.3'
'apt-get install kernel-patch-debian-2.6.3'
'cd /usr/src'
'tar xjvf kernel-source-2.6.3.tar.bz2'
'export PATCH_THE_KERNEL=YES'


Why? The Debaian package kernel-source-2.6.3 is patched with
kernel-patch-debian-2.6.3 ;-) The patched can be applied to a
vanilla-kernel from kernel.org.
Try with out patching ;-)

Tried without patching; same error. Looking at 
/usr/src/linux/include/linux/kernel.h, the lines in question all refer 
to va_list (actually, error msgs say the error is before va_list):

extern int vsprintf(char *buf, const char *, va_list);
extern int vsnprintf(char *buf, size_t size, const char *fmt, va_list 
args);
extern int vsscanf(const char *, const char *, va_list);

This any help??? Again, any help is appreciated,

Mark.


Finally got it working. Turns out there was some problem compiling 2.6.3 
with gcc-3.3; when I changed the /usr/bin/gcc symlink back to the older 
gcc-2.95, it compiled fine.

Thanks,
Mark.
