Sometime on or about the change to include/linux/compat.h:

summary: [SPARC64]: Move signal compat bits to new header file.
which added the line:
extern void sigset_from_compat(sigset_t *set, compat_sigset_t *compat);
my crosstool compile of sparc64 for 2.6.18-mm3 stopped building.
$ make init/main.o
fails on the "sigset_t *set", with:
In file included from include/asm/signal.h:11,
from include/linux/signal.h:4,
from include/linux/sched.h:67,
from include/linux/module.h:9,
from init/main.c:13:

include/linux/compat.h:231: warning: function declaration isn't a prototype
make[1]: *** [init/main.o] Error 1
make: *** [init/main.o] Error 2
P.S. -- Looks like I'm not the first to notice. Adding Dr. von Brand
and Andrew to my cc list.

And then there is a changeset I made right after that one which
fixes the build by removing the asm/signal.h include from asm/compat.h.

That build error came from the CONFIG_BLOCK patches and Dave's change was
intended to fix it rather than creating it.
2.6.19-rc1-mm1 builds OK on sparc64.
