Subject: [PATCH] Linux 2.6.25 - posix_types.h
Date: Sun, 20 Apr 2008 00:04:53 +0800 (SGT) [thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0804192351220.3260@boston.corp.fedex.com> (raw)
Linus,
The latest git download changes the behavior of posix_types.h such that
non-kernel programs are no longer able to include posix types
(e.g. xserver can no longer be compiled).
I don't know whether this is intended or a bug.
Attached is a patch to allow __i386__ as was done in the past.
Thanks,
Jeff.
