IDE build fails for sparc32

Someone asked for IDE support for Debian's sparc32 kernel images so they
could use their special JavaStations with them. I figured it would not
get built into the kernel, so no harm building modules of it. However,
with 2.4.27:

I suspect this has been broken for a while, but just wanted to make sure
people knew. I've decided to not add IDE for this release of the kernel
images for the time being.

If it's really horked, perhaps we should disable it in Config.in?

Thanks!

now, what was it those guys said to be... oh yes, 2.4 is dead, use 2.6... 
that's what they said.  I still use 2.4.x but, I should probably upgrade, 
seeing as how I can't make anything newer than .24 work.

I'll be getting a JavaStation so I can deal with this and will fix this
up. Please stick with 2.4 for now. If you could describe your system in
greater detail that would also be helpful.
