[Mac-on-linux-users] Build on kernel 2.6.23 fails

[Magnus R. <li...@cm...>]

Happy new year!

I tried to build mol on kernel 2.6.23.9 but the compilation fails. I tried
the release 0.9.72.1 and from the SVN and get these messages while running
make:

On Kernel 2.6.21.6 at least the stable release works fine.

System is Gentoo Linux on an Apple iBook G4. Hope someone can fix this.

It's a known issue.  Work is progressing on getting MOL fixed up to
build properly against .23 kernels.
