If no, try to get the original sources of this kernel and to apply the patch on it.

Hi all,
I'm trying to patch 2.6.6 to add support for the 4GB user space/ 4GB kernel space split. The patch I have is against 2.6.6-B7, whatever that is. It does not apply cleanly on vanilla 2.6.6.
I have shaked, twisted and hit the patch into place, until it now applies cleanly on stock vanilla 2.6.6 (attached). There are still a few rough edges on it. However, that does not appear to be the problem. The problem is that when I try to compile this kernel using the Debian tools (make-kpkg), I get compilation error ON THE DOCS. It claims that "direct_strncpy_from_user" is defined twice in kernel_api.sgml. I tried tracing it back to the source, and found nothing meaningful - direct_strncpy_from_user is only defined once there.
At this point I am at a loss. I don't know how the SGMLs are even generated, why it thinks it is defined twice, etc. I don't even know how to shut down the documentation generation - I don't need it. I know I can compile without the Debian make-kpkg, but I would really rather generate an easy to install package.
Ideas, anyone?
