Ignore it, the kernel build design is wrong.  make dep is supposed to
pick up all dependencies on included files but, at the time make dep is
run, generated files have not been created yet.  make dep issues lots
of spurious warning and error messages.  The 2.5 makefile rewrite fixes
the design.  This is not a failure condition, make dep keeps going.

I have no idea why udf_fs_sb.h includes versions.h, it does not use it.
I will follow up with the UDF group.

1. Sparc-64 kernel build fails on version.h during 'make oldconf ig'


Hmm.. didn't think about SMP, as I'm only UP right now.

The enclosed patch then should cover all the architectures
for the stock 2.4.7 kernel.

I tried to find the cleanest place to put the dependancy,
which was usually on the archdep: target, but in the case
of sparc builds, it was on the check-asm: target.

In either case, i'm now building correctly for both i386 and sparc64
for make -j2 dep.  I can also break out of the archdep tools build
and find version.h built, so unless anybody has any major gripes, this
patch should find it's way to the general release, yes?

Alan?
