I am using kernel version 2.2.1 built for anvil. I guess that is the
only stable version with anvil support. The same kernel works on the
anvil hardware that we are using, but gives the 'old system call'
error on the gdb emulator for ARM. I guess we'll try with Mike T's kernel
2.4.0 test6 patch for anvil.

Thanks & Rgds,
