[PVFS-developers] Kernel Build Problem

[Rob Ross]

Hey,

After ridiculous delay, this should be fixed in CVS.  I've created a 
separate test to look for "for_each_process".  Both tests seem to work 
correctly both on a stock kernel (with neither) and a redhat9 box (with 
both).

If someone could test on 7.3 or whatever, that would be cool.

Also, the autoconf I'm using seems to create particularly chatty output -- 
if RobL or Phil has a better (i.e. less irritating) autoconf, please rerun 
and check in the new configure...

Thanks!

Rob
