Hi Jeff,

  Well that's problem #1. Source from kernel.org for 2.4 tends to not work on
PPC as it has been lagging on important patches and such. We're hoping to get
kernel.org caught up ASAP.

  Visit here to get the up to date and sometime bleeding edge source for PPC.

Which version of gcc do you have? You want either 2.95.2 or 2.95.3

Ah YDL ... good stuff. Hope you are on 1.2 at least. 8-)

Thanks.  I'll try your suggestions and check on the version of my compiler
and binutils.

You need a newer gcc, I suspect you have egcs installed, and you need
to upgrade to gcc-2.95.2 or later.

Of course it's not a realistic expectation. There are times when it's a pain
to have to be safe - people will always break the rules when they're in a
hurry and the document to be sent is already in an unsafe format. But taking
plain text with absolutely no formatting, in fact text which is
_degenerated_ by word wrapping , and gratuitously putting it in a Word
document is just _so_ unnecessary that I assumed it had to be a troll.


> fork.c: In function Œcopy_mm¹:

Given what this output's been through - I'll assume it's corrupted in 
transit, shall I? 

The kind of error you're seeing is often caused by a mismatch between 
compiler and kernel. As Alan suggests, you should make sure you're using a 
PPC-specific tree because it's not up to date in the stock 2.4.3. And make 
sure you're using the recommended versions of compiler and binutils. Other 
than that, I'm afraid I don't know.

Jeez David.  Although it was insensitive of me to seek succor from the Linux
folks while speaking Microsoft, you needn't be so touchy about it.  I
promise I won't commit that sin again, however, at least not in these
circles.  (If it makes you feel any better, I'm using a Mac and not a
Wintel.)

For the record, I disagree with the content of your page at
http://www.infradead.org/fileexchange.html.  Viruses can indeed be hidden in
your list of (almost exclusively Microsoft) file formats.  Companies will
certainly enhance their security by following your "common sense" advice.
They can even be more secure by not accepting any email at all.  However, I
don't think that wishing the world would avoid these dominant (and very
useful) formats is a realistic expectation.  It is certainly not "common
sense" to assume as such.

Sorry, Tom about the word doc faux pas.  I've set out my problem in plain

Here's my problem:

Of course it's not a realistic expectation. There are times when it's a pain

plain text with absolutely no formatting, in fact text which is
_degenerated_ by word wrapping c, and gratuitously putting it in a Word

transit, shall I? 

The kind of error you're seeing is often caused by a mismatch between 
compiler and kernel. As Alan suggests, you should make sure you're using a 
PPC-specific tree because it's not up to date in the stock 2.4.3. And make 
sure you're using the recommended versions of compiler and binutils. Other 
than that, I'm afraid I don't know.

You need a newer gcc, I suspect you have egcs installed, and you need
to upgrade to gcc-2.95.2 or later.

Hi Jeff,

  Well that's problem #1. Source from kernel.org for 2.4 tends to not work on
PPC as it has been lagging on important patches and such. We're hoping to get
kernel.org caught up ASAP.

  Visit here to get the up to date and sometime bleeding edge source for PPC.

I have to assume that you're just winding us up here, rather than genuinely
in need of assistance. Word documents are not an appropriate form in which
to exchange such information across security domains; especially in public
fora - and I won't insult your intelligence by assuming that you believe
