hi john,

i didn't check all of these, but the #warning in applicom.c
(Je suis stupide.) has been around forever and it's listed in
both your 2.6.4 and 2.6.5 warning logs:

http://developer.osdl.org/cherry/compile/2.6/linux-2.6.4.results/2.6.4.allmodconfig.modules.txt:
drivers/char/applicom.c:522:2: warning: #warning "Je suis stupide. DW. - copy*user in cli"

and
http://developer.osdl.org/cherry/compile/2.6/linux-2.6.5.results/2.6.5.allmodconfig.modules.txt:
drivers/char/applicom.c:523:2: warning: #warning "Je suis stupide. DW. - copy*user in cli"

Ooh, was it the line number change that made it look new???

 I fixed the ''errno''s warnings, the patches are in -mm.

PS: I think they are not new.

Great.  Once they are merged, the errno warnings will be gone.

They were new relative to 2.6.4.  Check out the 2.6.4 build results:

 Oh yes, they are not new in -mm, where the time goes fast. :-)
