Christoph,

Which version of the driver are you testing and what kernel? I tried
it out fairly recently on 2.5.x (2.5.59 or so) and it compiled without
any problems.

I will take a look at building it against the latest 2.6.0-test
kernel. However, I am not going to make the vchan workaround a new
config option, it doesn't make any sense as it's already protected by
CONFIG_IA64_SGI_SN2 || CONFIG_IA64_GENERIC. The appropriate patches
for that have already been pushed for 2.4 and Jesse is about to push
them out for 2.5.

Cheers,
Jes
