OK, I have taken 2.6.21.5 from kernel.org, untarred it, done a "make
mrproper ARCH=um", followed by a "make oldconfig ARCH=um" (using the
nagafix .config file for 2.6.21.2-am1 as a starter) and then tried a
"make linux ARCH=um" but it didn't get very far at all.

I get the error:
arch/um/os-Linux/start_up.c: In function âstart_ptraced_childâ:
arch/um/os-Linux/start_up.c:110: error: âPAGE_SIZEâ undeclared (first
use in this function)
arch/um/os-Linux/start_up.c:110: error: (Each undeclared identifier is
reported only once
arch/um/os-Linux/start_up.c:110: error: for each function it appears in.)
arch/um/os-Linux/start_up.c: In function âstop_ptraced_childâ:
arch/um/os-Linux/start_up.c:156: error: âPAGE_SIZEâ undeclared (first
use in this function)
make[1]: *** [arch/um/os-Linux/start_up.o] Error 1
make: *** [arch/um/os-Linux] Error 2

Is there a certain set of patches I have to apply to the vanilla kernel
before I can successfully compile a recent UML kernel?

Thanks for any pointers.
