The base I'm running tests on is the XFree86-4.3.0 update to SuSE-8.1
(which I have a backup of  ;-)

Then I'm running 'make World' in a copy of the current CVS 'xc'-tree which I
'make install' over the actual /usr/X11R6/. The second step consists of
building the kernel modules inside the kernel tree - I use to maintain a
kernel patch from sources and headers I pick from
xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/[linux,shared]/drm/kernel/

This used to work pretty fine for at least one year now. As the mentioned
change to the CVS trunk did not add or remove source files (aside from
headers) I'm quite shure I did not mess with the Makefile.

The rest is quite simple: I remove the old kernel modules, I install new
kernel modules ('depmod -a' is without errors or warnings) and afterwards I
restart the X server.

At the moment everything is from today's CVS - except the 'radeon' kernel
module - and everything works fine (aside from the known bugs). When I load
the 'radeon' kernel module built from today's CVS, I encounter the situation
described in my previous posting.

It's quite obvious that the mentioned patch is responsible for the breakage,
although I did not yet try to revert the patch by every single file. Does
anyone have a useful suggestion where to start digging ?

Martin.
