First check the result of make <path>/clone.i (or pre-process it by hand, it it doesn't work - in latest sources I have included the fix.). > (The 2.6.15-rc1 version is > noticeably more bloated... The stub_syscall macros have been altered recently... I don't recall the exact point, you can verify by looking at www.kernel.org/git and looking for patches from either Jeff Dike or me (Paolo 'Blaisorblade' Giarrusso). No time to look now, but I seem to recall (verify by inspecting the patch) that it could have been moved from being a kernel-space object to a user-space one , or viceversa. This can be verified by inspecting the matching Makefile (user-space objects are listed in USER_OBJS), and/or the compilation command (with V=1) - the difference is linking with different headers. -- Inform me of my mistakes, so I can keep imitating Homer Simpson's "Doh!".
