My process was to start with 2.4.34 sources (that compiled fine), applied the 2.4.34.[1-5] patches and then the 2.4.35.rc5. I didnt patch the patches. I changed a jmp reference to a non-existent label to the correct label, in the one file that complained at build time. So have to repeat the full process, again. Will let you know...
