If it compiles without warnings then it will most likely work as good as 
it does on standard Linux versions.

If there is any warnings from the compiler then these warnings needs to be 
looked into as each warning is a potential source of problems.

Please check with RedHat if there is a suitable define which can be used
for the purpose of detecting the RH ES backport of Linux-2.6 networking
(to be specific the inet_add/delete_protocol calls). If there is then
ip_wccp.c can easily be updated to work on both standard Linux and RH ES
without modifications.
