Hello,
When I compile the 2.4.7 kernel on a RedHat system with an Athlon
1GHz processor
and gcc 2.96.2, I get a LOT of messages similar to the following:
<source file>:<number>:<number>: pasting would not give a valid
preprocessor token
They don't seem to be a problem; they're annoying, but they don't
prevent the compilation
of the kernel. Is this a problem? Or is it just another compile-time
annoyance?
Thanks,
Brad

It means the compiler ran into something like:
#define foo(a) do { a ## 2 ## .something() } while(0)
which should be
... a ## 2 .something() ...
