Maybe I can take that excuse away from you. ;) I'm willing to provide you
an account on my system (or equivalent) if you are sincerely interested in
adding Linux/Alpha to the list of supported platforms. Mail me privately,
if so.

It was included from <linux/sched.h>, not in any function definition that I
could surmise. Perhaps this is a compilation problem I am seeing due to
the kernel/tools I am using. I am using egcs-1.1.1 pre-release and
linux-2.1.130, with binutils 2.9.0.1.16. What versions of these tools have
you tested with?
I'll post here if I find the answer.
