[Comment 1 Robin Johnson 2005-02-26 20:35:27 UTC]

why do you consider this a bug?
the output is correct.

[Comment 2 Toralf Förster 2005-02-27 08:44:02 UTC]

Oops. I was not sure but inidcates this an syntax issue of the kernel sources ?

[Comment 3 Robin Johnson 2005-02-27 16:03:25 UTC]

yes, it indicates that somebody's source won't compile.
I believe that the kernel people already know about this.
