All...

        Just got the following error trying to build 2.3.44...

gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/mnt2/src/linux-2.3.44/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -fno-strength-reduce -DCPU=586 -DMODULE -DEXPORT_SYMTAB -c ppp_generic.c
/mnt2/src/linux-2.3.44/include/linux/kmod.h: In function `exec_usermodehelper':
In file included from ppp_generic.c:30:

/mnt2/src/linux-2.3.44/include/linux/kmod.h:14: for each function it appears in.)
make[2]: *** [ppp_generic.o] Error 1

make: *** [_mod_drivers] Error 2

        Yes - I had kmod disabled. It looks like several sources include
kmod.h but don't include errno.h (where EACCES is defined) before then, if
at all. If kmod is not enabled, those sources then go bang when compiled
as modules.

        If I just disable ppp, it goes bang in the sound modules. I've
now enabled kmod and I'm rebuilding...
