Take a look at 2.3.40-pre2.  It includes my uid16 fixes to the core and
to the Alpha arch.  The Alpha didn't need the 16-bit compatibility mess
either.

CONFIG_UID16 is now the define to test...  I simply added "define_bool
CONFIG_UID16 n" to arch/alpha/config.in, just to make it plain that the
compatibility stuff was not wanted.
