Description Vincent Fortier 2007-05-31 17:21:20 UTC 
Description of problem:
When trying to build independant modules the fixdep binary from latest build
(2948) makes a segmentation fault.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 2.6.20-1.2948

How reproducible: Every time I try to recompile my Nortel/Apani Netlock client

Steps to fix the problem:
Apply this patch:
http://git.kernel.org/?p=linux/kernel/git/stable/linux-2.6.21.y.git;a=commit;h=1ea6b2418cd2c6a6f31067ed6ece5cd12c69351e

I have tested new builds of 2948 kernels for i686 with this patch applied and it
fixes the problem right away!
