Subject: mol-0.9.40 on 603 success

Hi all,
As Ed Jaeger reported, he'd had success getting mol running on his
powerbase 200. He'd had to turn off module versioning when config-ing the
kernel.
I got mol-0.9.40 running with module versioning this morning. The
mol-patch-2.2.15pre4 patch makes a few changes to ppc_ksyms.c that don't
appear to be quite right.
After applying the pre4 patch, I changed the lines
EXPORT_SYMBOL(Hash);
EXPORT_SYMBOL(Hash_mask);
EXPORT_SYMBOL(last_task_used_math);
EXPORT_SYMBOL(next_mmu_context);
EXPORT_SYMBOL(handle_mm_fault);
EXPORT_SYMBOL(mol_interface);
in ppc_ksyms.c to instead read
EXPORT_SYMBOL_NOVERS(Hash);
EXPORT_SYMBOL_NOVERS(Hash_mask);
EXPORT_SYMBOL_NOVERS(last_task_used_math);
EXPORT_SYMBOL_NOVERS(next_mmu_context);
EXPORT_SYMBOL_NOVERS(handle_mm_fault);
EXPORT_SYMBOL_NOVERS(mol_interface);
After recompiling the kernel, mol ran wonderfully.
I don't claim to know enough to say that this is a correct fix. Only that
everything now works fine for me.
Samuel, if your reading, would this change have any impact on other
aspects of MOL that I'm not realizing?
