I can't comment on the ultimate validity of that, but I can tell
you that the conventional way of specifying a cross-compiler
is by using a string of the form `CROSS_COMPILE = arm-linux' in
the top-level Makefile; using this would solve your problems.

Yeah; I can't see anything wrong with that. You're hardly
trying to build pristine packages or anything.

Odd; I've got one in my 2.2.12+rmk+CVS kernel tree. It provides
only one function sys_iopl(); if you grep through the arm/
directory you'll probably find that this function is somewhere
in one of the other files in the particular version you've got.
I suggest upgrading to 2.2.12.

You are correct in that you have to change a variable somewhere
in the kernel source, I think. The CVS patches from netwinder.org
rectify this, I think; download the latest and search through
it until you find where the patch is, then you can apply it
to your latest kernel.
