Well that's bizarre.  The patch is against 2.4.0-test3, but I applied it
to 2.4.0-test3-pre4 and it went OK.   hmm..  I guess you'll have to back
down to test3, apply the patch to that.  I'll freshen the patch tonight.

There is a problem in test3 which breaks compilation (which is why I
recommended pre4):  

kernel/timer.c needs to look like this:

        if (p->pid) {
                if (--p->counter <= 0) {
                        p->counter = 0;
                        p->need_resched = 1;
                }
                if (p->nice > 0)
                        kstat.cpu_nice += user_tick;
                else
