Hi,

I got into several issues while trying to cross-compile a Linux 2.6 PPC
kernel from a Solaris 2.8 host (beside getting a valid cross compilation
chain). Mainly some programs compiled on the host are not planned to be
compiled on anything but Linux (The host has to run Linux).

All of the things you've changed look wrong to me.

Most of your changes are taking out <stdint.h>, which is not correct.
This header should be on any system, it is part of the C standard. Even
the getopt changes shouldn't be required, you should be using the
version of getopt that came with your package.

Are you sure that you've specified -nostdinc -nostdlib and given the
proper list of locations for the cross-compile system includes when
compiling?
