[Alsa-user] ALSA driver compile error (hg)

[Stephen S. <lp...@pa...>]

   Hi,

   With a fresh checkout of the hg repository (alsa-driver and alsa-kernel), 
I'm getting a compile error. I finally reverted both to February 15, and 
everything compiles fine. I'm totally lost on this one, it's a strange 
error, but here it is:

   Same system, mostly Slackware 10, gcc 3.3.4. The latest hg snapshot also 
gave the same error, if that helps. Thanks for your help, as always. :)
