The second part doesn't seem to be true: the code is used. And it does compile

after applying the fixes below, even with gcc 3.4.1.

The patch below makes the plain kernel.org 2.6.8.1 compile for m68k,

using gcc 2.95.2 or 3.3.3 (3.4.1 needs a few more changes in random

places). The resulting kernel (I booted the gcc 2.95.2 case) works fine on my

Amiga.

It's more or less the patch created by Matthias Urlichs last year, so

the credits are his:

| This change implements a reasonable compromise between the task_info->flags

| variable in other ports, which is too much work in the syscall path on m68k,

| and moving the whole structure to thread_struct, which is way too intrusive

| on other ports.

The patch does affect generic code a bit, but the collateral damage is

kept to a minimum.

We can still keep Roman's thread info abstractions[*] in Linux/m68k CVS, but

I'd really like the plain kernel.org kernel to be in a working state as well.

That way more people may do cross-compile tests for m68k.

Hence if no one objects, I'll submit the patch to Andrew and Linus.

All comments are welcome!
