ext3 compile errors

[Igor Gueths]

Hi all. I'm trying to rebuild a kernel on a friend's machine. He runs
Slackware 8.0 and is using Ext3 as the native filesystem. He has
gcc-2.95.3 currently, however I'm thinking of building 3.2 on the machine.
The problem is that at ocmpile time, I eventually get errors in valloc.c
during make bzImage. I tried including CONFIG_JBD in .config, however this
hasn't resolved it. He could also be missing some libraries, however
whether he is or isn't I haven't been able to determine this. Has anyone
experienced compile errors when rebuilding 2.4.18 in the ext3 driver?
Thanks!
