I found that out eventually. Really, the whole thing was somewhat of a brain-fart and I knew it before I even started, so I made a copy of the source and hacked away at that. It was kind of educational to explore the dependencies and such. IMHO throwing away a lot of hard-won GPL'd code is a really bad idea, especially drivers and such, but I was trying to understand the OSKit build process ( perhaps dreaming of updating it to linux 2.4 drivers ). I'm recompiling the original right now with CFLAGS=-O2 and --enable-debug --enable-indirect-osenv
I determined that a parallel make is a bad idea for OSKit as it sometimes crashes mysteriously, and my system can rebuild the thing in about 15mins anyways. I'll try a reboot with a newly compiled kernel tonight. If it works I'll post a note, if not I'll keep quiet.
Later.

The simple way to trim down your oskit build is to comment out all the drivers you don't need from oskit/dev/linux_{scsi,ethernet}.h before you build. Anything else you excise could be a problem.
