so i tried a third build method, gcc 3.4, and that built it fine but UML 
crashed during bootup:

 dione:~/linux/linux-x86.q> ./linux

rip            0x6020fd92       0x6020fd92 <txInit+306>

txInit is in JFS.

but at least i could build UML. (this is all with pristine -git)

So i checked the patch below. And it built fine, and boo^H^Hcrashed just 
like it did before:

   - PTRACE_FAULTINFO...not found
   - PTRACE_LDT...not found
 UML running in SKAS0 mode
 Segmentation fault

so i guess this is the way to go?
