Hi,

I'm getting an error trying to compile 2.6.5-mm5-1 on Alpha:

  CC      arch/alpha/kernel/osf_sys.o
  CC      arch/alpha/kernel/irq.o
  CC      arch/alpha/kernel/irq_alpha.o
  CC      arch/alpha/kernel/signal.o
arch/alpha/kernel/signal.c: In function `do_signal':
arch/alpha/kernel/signal.c:616: warning: passing arg 2 of 
`get_signal_to_deliver' from incompatible pointer type
arch/alpha/kernel/signal.c:616: error: too few arguments to function 
`get_signal_to_deliver'
make[1]: *** [arch/alpha/kernel/signal.o] Error 1
make: *** [arch/alpha/kernel] Error 2


GCC version 3.3.3. My .config is attached. Any other info you need?
(I'm on LKML, so no need to CC)

Thanks.

yup, sorry, the signal changes haven't been ported to alpha yet.  I might
drop them anyway, if I can think of a better way of fixing the race which
they fix.  It's on the todo list somewhere.
