Subject: linux-next: kbuild tree build failure

Hi Sam,

Today's linux-next build (powerpc ppc64_defconfig) failed like this:

powerpc-linux-ld:arch/powerpc/kernel/vmlinux.lds:190: syntax error

Caused by commit 59d59d97e34c6593bec43666679b28da5d583958 ("Improve
vmlinux.lds.h support for arch specific linker scripts") which was
clearly not build tested - don't do that! There is a missing \ at the end
of a line in the definition of the HEAD_SECTION macro.

I have used the version of the kbuild tree from next-20090605.
