The only information of any importance would be the kernel version ( 2.0.36p12 ) and the existence of "istring" in tkgen.c Besides, if you were compiling 2.0.36 (which I doubt), you shouldn't be using egcs anyway (on Alan's advice). In fact, having now found the problem, there's no way you could have been trying to compile 2.0.36- The proc istring is defined in scripts/header.tk which comes with 2.1.x, but is _NOT_ in the patches alan published. Copying that file into the 2.0.36 tree gets rid of the error message, but I haven't yet been able to test whether or not it works properly.
