Ok, I spent an hour or two toying with 0,96a-pl2 and gcc2.11c.
Here's what I had to do to get it to compile:
        1) Move itimer.c from linux/kernel to linux/lib
        2) go to tools/build.c and comment out the
                #include <stdlib.h>
           its unnecessary.

while i'm at it, leaving that include line in causes gcc to fail. It gives
parse errors when it tries to work through the include. Anyone know why?
Also, i saw someone post a methode for updating the psdatabase. Essentialy,
when you rebuild the kernel, the psdatabase need to be rebuilt to. Otherwise
I get a kmem error. I did this once when i built 0.96a. But now it doesn't
work. The command I used the first time was: ps U /usr/src/linux/tools/system
This won;t work anymore.

And yet another thing. Startx fails. I get a KDSETMODE error and complaints
about tty0. My set up is 486-50, 0.96a-pl2, gcc2.11c with all the libs,
a 30 meg linux partionm on a 105meg drive, PerfectView 1024 svga(ts4000).

Any answers will be appreciated!
