Hi,

I need to test a kernel-patch 
(http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9491). I downloaded some 
kernel-srpms and keep getting this:

+ mv kernel-2.6.24-i586.config .config
++ head -1 .config
++ cut -b 3-
+ Arch=i386
+ make ARCH=i386 nonint_oldconfig
.config:44:warning: trying to assign nonexistent symbol IPC_NS
.config:78:warning: trying to assign nonexistent symbol

IP_ROUTE_MULTIPATH_DRR
.config:971:warning: trying to assign nonexistent symbol NET_ESTIMATOR
.config:1130:warning: trying to assign nonexistent symbol DGRS

....

I tried several srpms from Januar and December and every time happens 
the same. In the first week on December I did the same process to 
compile a rawhide-kernel on the same machine (to test an earlier patch) 
and it worked flawless. Sadly I don`t remember the exact kernel-version.

Are the srpm all broken or is this a problem in my toolchain ? What is 
the last buildable srpm ?
