2.3.41-pre3 and athlon support..

After fiddling abit around i managed to produce this patch which creates a
kernel that compiles and boots just fine. After adding #include
<linux/sched.h> to string.h make complained something about circular
makefiles so i had to remove linux/string.h from signal.h and to my
suprise the kernel compiled and booted just fine.

Haven't yet tried to compile with other processor types..

Any comments on this? Something it breaks? Why wasn't the linux/string.h
really needed (or is it?) in signal.h?
