Subject: make gcc 3.4 compilation work
Date: Mon, 12 Jan 2004 17:43:22 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <16387.19770.848804.921771@napali.hpl.hp.com> (raw)

I still need the attached "attribute((used))" declarations to get
"make modules_install" to work with the GCC pre-3.4.
Patch is relative to 2.6.1.
