The following errors are seen when building the kernel with the latest

Thanks, these are easy enough for me to fix up.

Hmm.. ancient shelved toolchain. Perhaps this is the excuse we need to
say goodbye to arch/metag/...


Might be worth a thought. The metag toolchain doesn't even build anymore
without tweaking. gcc 4.2.4 doesn't build with a modern gcc, the metag
buildroot on github points to a no longer existing daily snapshot of
uclibc, and ToT uclibc doesn't build with gcc 4.2.4.
