I thought this may be of general interest, and that people who have
successfully built 2.2 kernels may wish to test it :-)

Subject: Time for modutils-2.2.2-pre1

Hi all,

I have just put a snapshot, or if you will, a pre-release on:

        <http://www.pi.se/blox/modutils/modutils-2.2.2-pre1.tar.gz>

I would appreciate if you could:

- - Test it, especially with egcs and libc2.1.

- - Look at how far from reality my wordexp() use in util/config.c is.

- - Look at the man pages, especially conf.modules.5, both to
  learn the new features as well as to find things I've forgotten.


Please note that the "path" directives in /etc/conf.modules should be
according to the "modules-2.0.0" syntax, that is:

    path[A_TAG]=A_PATH  means that modules with tag A_TAG are in A_PATH

In modutils-2.1.121 (and earlier in the 2.1 series) the syntax was modified:

    path[A_TAG]=A_PATH  meant that modules with tag A_TAG were in A_PATH/A_TAG

Although I have made some attempts to handle both syntaxes, I cannot
promise that the "modutils-2.1.121" is fully and correctly supported.

Comments, fixes, additional features to:
