Stephen hi

It is the 3rd Kernel-rc1 in a row that failed to compile or run UML, so I've
decided to watch like an auk the uml compilation in Linux next and make
sure to report or possibly fix things before they get into Linus tree.

So the compilation from the 16th
(from http://kisskb.ellerman.id.au/kisskb/buildresult/3530881/)
gives out:

  LD      init/built-in.o
  LD      .tmp_vmlinux1
/opt/crosstool/gcc-4.2.3-glibc-2.3.6/i386-unknown-linux-gnu/lib/gcc/i386-unknown-linux-gnu/4.2.3/../../../../i386-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/ld:arch/um/kernel/vmlinux.lds:231: parse error
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
  KSYM    .tmp_kallsyms1.S
/opt/crosstool/gcc-4.2.3-glibc-2.3.6/i386-unknown-linux-gnu/bin/i386-unknown-linux-gnu-nm: '.tmp_vmlinux1': No such file
No valid symbol.
make[1]: *** [.tmp_kallsyms1.S] Error 1
make: *** [sub-make] Error 2
make failed, trying to bisect ..

I know that Linus November 14 was the first version that compiled do to some
needed UM patch. But what's going on with the 16th tree? Here it all compiles
well, though I'm using an x86_64 environment.

Could you please check if perhaps something has broken with the build environment.

BTW: I have set a cron job that checks out linux-next at 4:00 am everyday and
compiles a UML allmodconfig. I want a second check here as well.

Thanks
Boaz
