This patch and the previous one breaks the compilation on one of my
machines. Specifically, this bit:

Causes this compile error:

/home/muli/kernel/trident/trident.git/net/core/skbuff.c:648:1: directives may not be used inside a macro argument
/home/muli/kernel/trident/trident.git/net/core/skbuff.c:647:39: unterminated argument list invoking macro "memcpy"
/home/muli/kernel/trident/trident.git/net/core/skbuff.c: In function `pskb_expand_head':
/home/muli/kernel/trident/trident.git/net/core/skbuff.c:651: `memcpy' undeclared (first use in this function)
/home/muli/kernel/trident/trident.git/net/core/skbuff.c:651: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
/home/muli/kernel/trident/trident.git/net/core/skbuff.c:651: for each function it appears in.)
/home/muli/kernel/trident/trident.git/net/core/skbuff.c:651: syntax error before "skb"

muli@rhun:~/kernel/trident/trident.git$ gcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2.3/specs
Configured with: ../configure --prefix=/usr --mandir=/usr/share/man --infodir=/usr/share/info --enable-shared --enable-threads=posix --disable-checking --with-system-zlib --enable-__cxa_atexit --host=i386-redhat-linux
Thread model: posix
gcc version 3.2.3 20030502 (Red Hat Linux 3.2.3-53)

It happens because memcpy ends up being a macro, and this gcc dislikes
having a preprocessor directive inside a macro argument. I don't know
if if it's valid in general, but Documentation/Changes does say we
still support gcc 3.2...

Cheers,

Well, the fix is easy, can you provide a patch?

Sure, but I was hoping you had a follow-on patch to get rid of the
ugly ifdefs in .c files that would make it irrelevant? if not I'll
whip out the obvious patch.

Cheers,
