You lost me with this mail, but after hitting the problem myself, I
think I can summarize:
% ./configure
KVM support no
% cd kernel; make sync LINUX=/home/hollisb/source/kvm.git; cd ..
% ./configure
KVM support yes
This is building x86 kvm-userspace.git on an x86 host; no
cross-compiling or PowerPC involved.
This seems wrong to me, and also contradicts the "building an external
module with older kernels" directions at
http://kvm.qumranet.com/kvmwiki/Code .
Avi, did something in the build procedure break recently?
