Re: Problem compiling egcs

[Martin Costabel <costabel@wanadoo.fr>]

Just to set the record straight:

This problem is now solved. It came from a kernel header file
include/asm-ppc/ptrace.h which, in the vger version 2.3.3 of the last 2
weeks, contained the definition
   #define REG unsigned long
It has been fixed yesterday. Thanks, Cort.
