I'm getting the following failure in main.o when running "lin uml."

arch/um/main.c: In function `last_ditch_exit':
arch/um/main.c:68: warning: implicit declaration of function `CHOOSE_MODE'

 ! Problem Detected !
make: *** [arch/um/main.o] Error 1

I'm not entirely clear on what the module is doing. If it's building a 
host kernel that will run *instead* of the kernel installed by "lin 
linux," shouldn't it use the same source tree and patch set? I need it to, 
since my system runs on XFS which is currently not supported in the uml 
module.

Also, is there any reason not to build against the host-skas3.patch patch
instead of the other? Host-skas provides threading for UML processes,
which supposedly speeds up the virtualized kernel by an order of
magnitude.
