new platform & S_IFGITLINK problem

Hello,

Just joined as I'm compiling git on a new platform and wondered if
someone can help solve a problem with the definition of S_IFGITLINK.

On my platform I have the following definitions....

#define __S_IFSOCK      0010000 /* Socket.  */
#define __S_IFCHR       0020000 /* Character device.  */
#define __S_IFDIR       0040000 /* Directory.  */
#define __S_IFBLK       0060000 /* Block device.  */
#define __S_IFREG       0100000 /* Regular file.  */
#define __S_IFIFO       0120000 /* FIFO.  */
#define __S_IFMEM       0140000 /* memory region or process */
#define __S_IFLNK       0160000 /* Symbolic link.  */

Yet, S_IFGITLINK in the git sources is defined as 0160000, so this
clashes with my platform.

There is a comment about the definition of S_IFGITLINK in cache.h that
it shouldn't be used like this and should use internal values.

So I'm wondering if this can be fixed to remove this assumption ?

Additionally, attached is a patch that I currently need to apply in
order to compile git successfully on the FreeMiNT platform (which is
m68k based).

Comments appreciated.

Thanks,

Alan.
