gcc 3.0.2 20010905 (Red Hat Linux 7.1 3.0.1-3) complains about
conflicting definitions of xtime in 2.4.10-ac1:
kernel/timer.c: struct timeval xtime __attribute__ ((aligned (16)));
include/linux/sched.h: extern volatile struct timeval xtime;
So I used the trivial patch below to get it to compile, I'm no C
expert so I don't know if I chose the correct definition. Hopefully
my mailer won't screw up the whitespace.
Cheers, Wayne
