Duplicate symbols in -ac JFFS2

In 2.4.7-ac9, if both ppp deflate and JFFS2 are built into the kernel,
there are lots of duplicate symbols.

drivers/net/ppp_deflate.o(.data+0x0): multiple definition of `deflate_copyright'
fs/jffs2/jffs2.o(.data+0x20): first defined here
drivers/net/ppp_deflate.o: In function `deflateInit_':
drivers/net/ppp_deflate.o(.text+0x0): multiple definition of `deflateInit_'
...

What happened to the idea of puttting the deflate code in its own
object with exported symbols, instead of duplicating it in each
directory?
