Cool.

I've never had SMP set to 1; I read the note Linus made about kernel
2.1.20someodd being SMP by default, and I promptly changed my SMP to 0. I
did that back in 2.1.28 or something; the symbol problems I reported
didn't show up in 2.1.29. I went from 2.1.29 straight to 2.1.32 so I
don't know if they existed in between. One exception: ipv6 had some
failed dependancies in 2.1.29 but I wasn't using it... My Makefile:

[...]
# NOTE! SMP is experimental. See the file Documentation/SMP.txt
#
SMP = 0
#
# SMP profiling options
# SMP_PROF = 1
[...]

Do I need to do something other than this?
