Strange, I just checked out v2.6.31 and only one hunk in the _first_
patch (adding the recvmmsg entry in the sparc 32 syscall table) failed,
the second applied with just minor offsets.

You must have corrupted the patch when saving somehow, anyway, find
both, against v2.6.31, attached.

Back to building the kernel on 10 Gbit/s hardware.
