SubjectBuilding a 64-bit module on i386
Hello,

I'm running the Debian i386 architecture on a amd64-k8 running an
amd64-k8 Linux kernel. I'm trying to compile a module (fuse
inicdentally) for my 64-bit kernel. I'm compiling the module using
ARCH=x86_64 CC='gcc-3.4 -m64'. This method compiles all the object
files, but modpost fails:
Building modules, stage 2.
scripts/mod/modpost -i
/usr/src/kernel-headers-2.6.11-9-amd64-k8/Module.symvers
/home/sjackman/src/modules/usr_src/modules/fuse/kernel/fuse.o
modpost: /home/sjackman/src/modules/usr_src/modules/fuse/kernel/fuse.o
no symtab?

Some debugging of modpost shows that in parse_elf, hdr->e_shnum is 0,
whereas readelf says that it is 20. Any suggestions?

Please cc me in your reply. Cheers,
Shaun
