Howdy,

I'm trying to build the lvm under RedHat 6.1 (linux 2.2.14 + devfs),
and
while the kernel patch applies and builds just fine (even with devfs),
I've
run into some problems with the lvm tools.

I'm using the 0.8-pre02.10.1999 release of the tools.

After typing 'make', the build dies with errors along these lines:

  cc -c -pipe -Wall -I/usr/src/LVM/0.8-pre02.10.1999/tools
-I/usr/src/LVM/0.8-pre0
  2.10.1999/tools/lib -I/usr/src/LVM/0.8-pre02.10.1999/kernel
-D__KERNEL__ -O2 -DD
  EBUG -o debug.o debug.c
  In file included from /usr/include/linux/fs.h:20,

		   from /usr/src/LVM/0.8-pre02.10.1999/tools/lib/liblvm.h:103,
		   from basename.c:26:

  /usr/include/sys/stat.h:105: warning: this is the location of the

  [...ad nauseum...]

These errors occur for virtually every file in the distribution.  Has
anyone else encountered this problem?
