Hi all,

I just update my kernel to -pa21 release do a 'make distclean' recover my=

previous .config then do 'make menuconfig' and finaly 'make dep; make vml=
inux'.

And it failled with following message:
`gcc -print-libgcc-file-name` /usr/src/linux-2.4.20-pa21/arch/parisc/lib/=
lib.a
/usr/src/linux-2.4.20-pa21/lib/lib.a  \
        --end-group \
        -o vmlinux
arch/parisc/math-emu/math.o(.text.handle_fpe+0x80): In function `handle_f=
pe':
: undefined reference to `printbinary'
arch/parisc/math-emu/math.o(.text.handle_fpe+0xcc): In function `handle_f=
pe':
: undefined reference to `printbinary'
make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1

What do I wrong?

Thanks in advance,
    Joel
