My attempts to build kernel 2.3.99-pre6/5 have failed in the USB
subsection.
Building with usb as modules works okay, but usbcore (I think) ends
up with unresolved symbols -- 'lock_kernel' and 'unlock_kernel'. Building
with USB in-kernel fails in what I think is the final linking stage.
The redirected standard error from the build follows. I will ask my
local LUG how to redirect stdout and stderr into a single file, to provide
context in the future.
