CVS Compile Help

[Douglas Mayne <ddmayne@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I downloaded the CVS, per the instructions on your website:

   cvs checkout linux-2.4-xfs

When I tried to compile (with gcc 3.3.4), I get an error at make 
modules_install:
if [ -r System.map ]; then /sbin/depmod -ae -F System.map  2.4.27; fi
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in /lib/modules/2.4.27/kernel/fs/xfs/xfs.o
depmod:         sync_buffers


In tracking this down, it appears only part of the split-patches have 
been applied to the CVS.
Should all of these patches have already been applied?  Is this 
documented somewhere?
Pardon me if this is the way it is supposed to be (this is my first time 
here.)
Thank You,
Douglas Mayne
