I'm getting the following build error for the Intel e1000e driver
while building on SPARC32 for both 2.6.24.7 and 2.6.25.4:

drivers/net/e1000e/netdev.c:2583: confused by earlier errors, bailing out

make[1]: *** [drivers/net] Error 2
make: *** [drivers] Error 2
I don't know if this has anything to do with the version of binutils
(2.17.50.0.17) or gcc (4.2.3), but I'll try to build on the latest
2.6.26 rc to see if it produces the same error message.
In the meantime I'll build without the driver. The kernel is supposed
to run in qemu for SS 5/10 emulation, since I don't have any
pre-UltraSPARC hardware yet.
