I'm now using the SDE-Linux 5.03.06 for the big-endian target. I
started the 2.4.22 kernel build process, but soon I get the following
compile error.
**********

I'm not able to understand these error messages. Could someone throiw
some light on this issue? Is this because of the toolchain that I'm
using for building the kernel?
Thanks,
Shireesh
