[uml-devel] linux-3.6.x ARCH=um will not build

[Dave H. (Bob) <da...@bo...>]

Apologies if this repeats any previous attempts made by me: problems with 
something called 'gmane'

arch/um/os-Linux/signal.c:18:8: error: conflicting types for 'sig_info'
/nfs4xp/software/krn/linux-3.6.x/linux-3.6.2-um64/arch/um/include/shared/as-
layout.h:64:15: note: previous declaration of 'sig_info' was here

I get the above error when trying to build both linux-3.6 and linux-3.6.2 in 
both x86 (gcc-4.7.2) and x86_64 (gcc-4.6.3) environments.

Since both files involved in the conflict are part of the source distribution, 
I don't think that it can be a fault with my environment; but then I don't 
understand why it obviously works for others.
