This needs to be CCed to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and applied upstream. I don't know if bits/wordsize.h is too Linux-specific (or if that even matters in the configure script). -- Hollis Blanchard IBM Linux Technology Center -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
