I have been followign the procedures in INSTALL but encounter a problem
during 'make'. I get:

The problem seems to be a reference to current->timeout.
I have ftape-4.02, egcs-2.91.66, RedHat 6.1, kernel 2.2.12. I have ftape
in /usr/local/src/ftape-4.02. I made 2 changes to MCONFIG:
# PREFIX = /usr
PREFIX = /usr/local
and
# SBINDIR = /sbin
SBINDIR = $(PREFIX)/sbin
I looked at the code but couldn't see anything obvious. I suspect the
problem isn't there anyways. Does anyone have some suggestions?
