Compile testing is more effective is you use a .config that
builds each of the source files changed.
I have compiled it with .config files resulting from targets
'allmodconfig' and 'allyesconfig'.

What tree is this patch against?
This line is already present (above the comment) in 2.6.18-rc4.
This surprises me. This patch is against 2.6.18-rc4, git-pull -ed today morning.
Maybe I should do one more git-pull?

Thanks,
