Thnx Peter, this fixes the compile error
now i run 2.4.20 with the patch, and build the raid correctly

only a small thing left (in the raid code?) that needs to be fixed :
(array size is neggative)
mdadm version 1.0.1
but maybe it is just mdadm which is a buggy program
since the 'Total Devices : 16' is also incorrect (seen before on multiple
systems)
