Ok, this must have happened around 2.4.7pre6 or so. The earlier one that I'm
running (2.4.6pre3 from cvs.20010708) is fine. Seems as though a structure
changed.
I've looked at the patch and it looks innocuous enogh. I'll make sure that
the right patches continually get to VMware so that when 3.0 comes out, the
drivers will likely build without being patched. Just keep adding to the
pile of macros. And then, when we have a big enough pile ....
