Yep, that fixes that. I'll push this patch into the for-linus
branch of the m68knommu git tree.

Now, back to the original patch. Now fails with another syntax error
at the last line in this:

  .init : {
   . = ALIGN((1 << (12)));
   __init_begin = .;
   . = ALIGN((1 << (12))); .init.text : AT(ADDR(.init.text) - 0) { 
_sinittext = .; *(.init.text) *(.devinit.text) *(.cpuinit.text) 
*(.meminit.text) _einittext = .; }

Regards
Greg
