Ok, here is a diff for 0.5pre0 to 0.5pre1

This compiles perfectly on rh linux 5.2 (2.2.10) and Sparc Solaris 7 with the patches.

Thanks :))

In order to help Linus and the other kernel developers there has been substantial support incorporated into klogd for processing protection faults. In order to have full support for address resolution at least version 1.3-pl3 of the sysklogd package should be used. When a protection fault occurs the klogd daemon automatically translates important addresses in the kernel log messages to their symbolic equivalents. This translated kernel message is then forwarded through whatever reporting mechanism klogd is using. The protection fault message can be simply cut out of the message files and forwarded to the kernel developers. Two types of address resolution are performed by klogd. The first is static translation and the second is dynamic translation. Static translation uses the System.map file in much the same manner that ksymoops does. In order to do static translation the klogd daemon must be able to find a system map file at daemon initialization time. See the klogd man page for information on how klogd searches for map files.
