I'm making progress with the merge but I stumbled over a few issues when
compiling against a 2.6.12. Some were related to changes in SVN, and
most were easy to fix. But this one remained:

rt_r8169.c:689: SET_NETDEV_DEV(rtdev, &pdev->dev);

This cannot work as the macro addresses a field of net_device
rtnet_device does not provide. Are you compiling against 2.4??? Anyway,
is disabling of that line ok?

Ok, but you should note that SVN so far only works with fusion-CVS
respectively the soon-to-be-released version 0.9. RTAI/classic support
is still searching for a contributor.
