Hello All,

Noticed that I could not get patch-2.4.21-pre3 to compile:

make[3]: Entering directory `/usr/src/kernels/linux-2.4.20/drivers/usb'
ld -m elf_i386 -r -o usbcore.o usb.o usb-debug.o hub.o devio.o inode.o drivers.o devices.o hcd.o

hcd/ehci-hcd.c: In function `ehci_irq':
hcd/ehci-hcd.c:685: parse error before `;'

I'm not sure why gcc 2.95.3 is failing on the macro expansion, but it is
turning:
ehci_warn (ehci, "illegal capability!\n");
into:
printk("<4>" "%s %s: " "illegal capability!\n" , hcd_name, ( ehci ) ;
which is missing the ->... structure reference. The macros in
ehci-dbg.c work just fine if you give them one or more arguments
following the format string definition.

Compiler is gcc 2.95.3, binutils 2.12.90.0.9 20020526, glibc 2.2.5 on a
Slackware 8.0 distribution.
