The ./configure line fails, on page 2 of that document, so I moved the .config 
files from 31-rc4 into that tree, and I'm using my own script to do the build 
and install, fiddling with the version numbers to track, calling the first 
build 2.6.31-rc3.5.  The build seems to be going ok, but I had to pull in the 
firmware/radeon tree from my own 31-rc4 in order to get the firmware my script 
& the .config expects.

As my script bounces in and out of the src tree, it needs the src tree named 
consistently.  So I had to restart it a couple of times to fix all those 
gotcha's.  But now I am ready to reboot, starting with me some zz's.  The 
build didn't spit any more stuff than usual.  5 section miss-matches I've been 
looking at for over a year, and some recent adds of rnonce.data stuff that are 
fussing about not being initialized.  I'll test for good/bad in the morning.
