Version 2.6.4 of perfctr, the Linux performance
monitoring counters driver, is now available at the usual
place: http://www.csd.uu.se/~mikpe/linux/perfctr/

Three architectures are now supported: x86, AMD64, and PPC32.

Since I only have a PPC750, I'm looking for testers with 74xx
or 604 processors. Even if you don't intend to use the driver,

kernel patches applied with no fuzz to 2.4.24, but compiling the library
gives:

[...]

Hmm, must be a glibc or kernel headers version problem.
I'm running YDL3.0.1 with glibc-2.3.1.

What version of glibc do you have? How does it define an
mcontext_t (struct sigcontext_struct)?
