I would like to test, but unfortunately with the patch kernel not build
on my system:

kernel/built-in.o: In function `task_utime':
/usr/src/rhel5/linux-2.6/kernel/sched.c:5187: undefined reference to
`__udivdi3'
kernel/built-in.o: In function `task_stime':
/usr/src/rhel5/linux-2.6/kernel/sched.c:5208: undefined reference to
`__udivdi3'
make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1

Cheers
Stanislaw
