[uml-devel] UML and 2.6.x

[Kris Van Hees]

I just found out (the hard way) that is seems like UML 2.6.4 cannot be compiled
on a host that is running 2.4.18, because the host-level code (in this case
arch/um/os-Linux/process.c) is depending on things in the installed include
files (unistd.h and the stuff it includes, specifically linux/unistd.h) that
are simply not there (__NR_tkill).  Is this fact documented somewhere that I
overlooked?

It is not documented, but there have been several complaints. Comment out the 
piece of code and un-comment the call to kill(), which will work perfectly.
