Please do not blame the wrong people. Use tools like "mtn" or
"monotone-viz" to easily see who added or broke stuff.

Let me see:

           http://kamikaze.waninkoko.info/patches/2.6.24/kamikaze1/broken-out/squashfs-lzma-2.6.24.patch;patch=1
\
           file://powerpc-clockres.patch;patch=1 \
           file://leds-cpu-activity.patch;patch=1 \
           file://leds-cpu-activity-powerpc.patch;patch=1 \

1. The first one is machine independent and architecture independent.
It should work for everyone, but only if they enable the filesystem in
the kernel configuration.
2. The second is machine independent but architecture dependent. It
unbreaks things if you build for powerpc, does nothing if you build
for other architectures.
3. The third one is machine independent and architecture independent.
You need a architecture dependent patch to make this work.
4. The  fourth patch is machine independent and architecture depedent.

None of the patches are machine specific.

However, adding them here did break the build, and that was *my*
mistake, for which I am truly sorry.

I committed the patches to linux-rt-2.6.24 (the hard real-time
scheduling kernel), but not 2.6.24.

I'll try to fix this mess,
