I got the following error while compiling 2.6.10 kernel: (I tried compiling 2.6.11 as well, but got the same error). I am using fedora 12 distribution...
CC arch/i386/kernel/semaphore.o
In file included from include/asm/mpspec.h:6,

make[1]: *** [arch/i386/kernel/semaphore.o] Error 1
I am not sure whether I require some sort of a patch for this... Any help on this will be great. Thanks.
