Hi Alan,
  latest gcc-3.0 snapshot in Debian just decided that:

extern struct timeval xtime;   /* linux/sched.h */
volatile struct timeval xtime; /* kernel/timer.c */

is incorrect - which is probably correct idea. So please apply
following patch. As 'jiffies' variable uses extern + volatile,
there is already precedent for doing this. Patch was generated
from 2.4.5-ac13.
					Thanks,
						Petr Vandrovec
