In 2.4.7-ac9, if both ppp deflate and JFFS2 are built into the kernel,
there are lots of duplicate symbols.
drivers/net/ppp_deflate.o(.data+0x0): multiple definition of `deflate_copyright'
fs/jffs2/jffs2.o(.data+0x20): first defined here
drivers/net/ppp_deflate.o: In function `deflateInit_':
drivers/net/ppp_deflate.o(.text+0x0): multiple definition of `deflateInit_'
...
What happened to the idea of puttting the deflate code in its own
object with exported symbols, instead of duplicating it in each
directory?

Well the PPP one is different due to RFC-ishness...
The rest could be merged most likely.
