[PATCH] Fixes for gcc 3.3

[PATCH] Fixes for gcc 3.3

[Andrew Church]

[Note: I am not subscribed to the list; please CC: me on responses.]

     The following is a short set of modifications I had to make to the
2.4.20 source to get it to compile under gcc 3.3.  There may be more; these
are just the ones that showed up under my configuration.  If anyone is
working on (or planning to work on) kernel/gcc-3.3 compatibility issues,
feel free to use this as a starting point.

Please check out the 2.5 source whether things are fixed there
already, and maybe differently. This for example should really be
__u16.
