o The i2c "Philips style parallel port adapter" is only selectable
  as a module in "make menuconfig", although the help text suggests
  that it can be compiled in.

o With all i2c options activated, I still get this:
  drivers/i2c/i2c.o: In function `scx200_i2c_setscl':
  drivers/i2c/i2c.o(.text+0x636f): undefined reference to `scx200_gpio_base'

  drivers/i2c/i2c.o(.text+0x6578): undefined reference to `scx200_gpio_configure'

o Some help texts are missing, e.g for
  "Generic PCI IDE Chipset Support"
  i2c/"NatSemi SCx200 I2C using GPIO pins"

Apart from that, 2.4.21-rc3 compiles, boots and runs OK.
