Other (better?) solution without the need to modify kernel26: Copy the needed asm Include files and directories to klibc/klcc's include dir. I attach a modified PKGBUILD for klibc (upstream version 1.5.15). This is quick&dirty, but it works. For klibc itself the 2.6.28.patch is still needed but the other klibc-* tools build without errors. BTW: about the two death symlinks: these are also in current core klibc package. The i386 symlink is produced by klibc make itself, the other (asm-x86) by our PKGBUILD. For ext4 support the patch is no longer needed. I tested on i686. Regards Gerhard
