Ben, you remember the patch I sent to you a few weeks ago ? VLAN didn't link builtin on alpha because vlan_proc_cleanup() in section __exit was called from vlan_proc_init() in section __init, and it semt that the absolute offsets between these two functions were too big for the linker to put it on a 16 bit value (which was the space reserved for a relative call, it seems). So the linker complained and stopped. I had to extract the cleanup from __exit and put it into another function which worked.
Regards, Willy
