There's a lot of old stuff in that patch.  It would be more useful to me if
it were against a recent UML patch, like the 2.6.0 patch that I'm working
on at the moment.  That has all the recent 2.4 changes pulled in as well as
updating to 2.6.0.  A patch containing the stuff that you have that I don't
would be useful.

Some more specific things -
	I'm not going to update the skas3 patch again, but I'm glad people are
cleaning it up and updating it.
	I don't like the UML_USER_OBJS thing - feel free to work on it, but
I'm not going to merge it unless I'm desperate.  I continue to think that the
right way to go is to move all the userspace stuff under os-Linux, then fiddle
the build rules there.
