Hi Alan,
Your compiler must really like you, seeing as it would barf on any significant I/O here. Somewhere along the line, somebody removed the INIT_LIST_HEAD for current->local_pages from fork.c and didn't put it back somewhere else (like INIT_TASK or whatever was in mind.)
I just put it back where it was for now, not knowing what the original intention was. As long as it is put somewhere... :-)
Paul.
