I've also noticed that when I do "make modules" or "make zImage"
ppp_deflate.c gets recompiled almost every time. Often it's the only file
getting compiled. It's compiled when I do "make modules" then again if I
do "make zImage" right afterward. This happened with 2.1.77 too. The only
patches I've applied to 2.1.78 are my own small ones which I've posted
here, and commmmenting out "SMP = 1". None are related to PPP. Here's
