Re: Help understanding compile failure

The file is (obviously) included in the Linux kernel, but I do not
get any compilation problem on that. The ftape maintainer has no
clue; can anyone offer some advice?
The Linux kernel on Alpha adds various flags to the compiler which the
ftape modules aparently are not adding as well.
Take a look at what arch/alpha/Makefile does in the Linux kernel
sources, in particular the things it adds to CFLAGS such as
"-mno-fp-regs -ffixed-8" etc.
