I haven't made a patch, and stupidly, today, I accidentally reformatted the 
machine I've kept it on.

Needless to say, the patch was very easy and I can do it again quickly. I 
will have to do it soon anyway.

The UML patch from 2.4.20 actually patches on 2.4.21-pre7 anyway, but it did 
not compile correctly.

Yes, I noticed that one, and I fixed it by changing kernel_thread -> 
arch_kernel_thread in the UML arch place it was defined.

Same fix as the 1st one.

I just made them all the same.

I haven't seen that one before, maybe it changed between -pre7 and -rc1

Sorry I can't help more,
