can't build 2.4.0-test1; matroxfb parse error?

[Stefan Jeglinski]

I just rsynced to the linux-pmac-devel tree to try the latest compile
on my PM6500. I believe this is 2.4.0-test1. With all default config
options, I get this error:

matroxfb_base.c:1146: parse error before `matroxfb_set_cmap'
make[4]: *** [matroxfb_base.o] Error 1

I'm using /gcc version 2.95.2 19991024 (release/franzo)/ if that
makes any difference. I don't know how to handle a "parse error."
What is it and how might I fix it (or do I just not compile with
matrox support for now)?

If you get more look on the lkml there is a patch for that topic.
