That's what I thought, but one of my builds in 3.15 for Octane (IP30) was pulling in IP32's Platform file for some reason, which caused a build error. I could not figure it out. I played with building an IP27 kernel some, and figured out it wasn't affected, so after looking at its Platform file, I noticed the ifdef. Looking at IP32, that wasn't there, so I added it, and the build problem went away. I did the same for IP22 just for consistency. I figure kbuild or make was just getting confused somewhere and globbing IP3*. IP22 wouldn't be affected because IP27 has an ifdef present, but IP30 was somehow affected because IP32 lacked the ifdef. No one else has probably run into it because IP30 isn't officially in the tree. -- Joshua Kinard Gentoo/MIPS kumba@xxxxxxxxxx 4096R/D25D95E3 2011-03-28 "The past tempts us, the present confuses us, the future frightens us.
