compiling a kernel with SUN4 defined doesn't work (Feb 10 tarfiles), 
because in arch/sparc/sparc/autoconf.c on line 215, an assignment is made 
and the types are slightly different..

they are:

        void    (*pv_setctxt)(int ctxt, caddr_t va, int pmeg);

in the promvec structure, defined in arch/sparc/include/bsd_openprom.h

and:

        void    (*setcxsegmap) __P((void));/* Set seg in any context */

in the om_vector structure, defined in arch/sparc/include/oldmon.h

which way its supposed to be I don't know, but I thought I'd point it out.. 

while I'm here, somebody mentioned a while ago that they had looked at the
history of a certain file, is it possible for us (the great unwashed) to do
this easily?  I have looked in the CHANGES file, but there doesn't seem to be
much detail in there..

still here, there is no src/Makefile in the source tarfiles, shouldn't there
be one included for full effect?

thank you for listening.
for more exciting adventures of:
