I'm trying to build a computer with network diagnostic tool, https://software.internet2.edu/ndt/ and it requires patches to the kernel, https://www.web10g.org/. The latest kernel for which there are patches, 3.17, doesn't compile with the patches, so I had to progressively retrogress until I can found one that did.

Does anyone know why this and a way to fix it? Not that many memories about this one, but why would anyone try to figure what was wrong on a kernel that's been dead for 4 years now and after which thousands of bugs have been fixed, possibly the one that affects you ?
