I am not sure if the error is something else but after applying
the patch for gcc340 to the pvfs-kernel source (v 1.6.2), the 
compilation succeeds.  However, attempt to insert module pvfs.o 
complains that it can't find the kernel module. The RedHat Kernel in use 
is  2.4.20-30.9.
The module copied to the kernel fs directory is the one generated after 
the compilation. The messages are as shown:

[root at prahba ekw]# insmod pvfs
Using /lib/modules/2.4.20-30.9/kernel/fs/pvfs/pvfs.o
/lib/modules/2.4.20-30.9/kernel/fs/pvfs/pvfs.o: couldn't find the kernel 
version the module was compiled for
