Dave I am sorry about the previous compile errors, I was not seeing
them when testing.  You were correct, I was not using the allmodconfig
during my testing.  Since then, I have found the solution to the
compile issue, and I have done several compile testing on the updated
patches (allmodconfig, allyesconfig, and several randconfig tests).
All looks fine.  This issue was that ATM, IRDA, and several others
where needed PPP along with Serial Line Header Compression to get
compiled.  While there were entries in drivers/net/Makefile for PPP
and SLIP, then would not call out the dependency directly.  So I just
needed to add the Makefile options available in
drivers/net/ppp/Makefile and drivers/net/slip/ in
drivers/net/Makefile.

I am doing 2 more sanity compile checks before re-submitting this
patchset (for that last time). :)
