Trying to compile linux 2.2.15pre14 on SPARC and i686 with egcs-20000306, I
get failures due to use of '#' in front of non-macro-arguments. Note that
the as.info explicitly says the current form is only for compatibility with
Sun's assemblers, the correct version is the one I give in the patch below.
This is essentially what 2.3.51 defines in include/linux/init.h, BTW.
The asm-*/init.h files are almost the same in this area, so the same fix
should probably be applied to all of them. asm-sparc{,64}/uaccess.h also
uses the Sun form extensively, my SPARC is at work so I can't check right
now. asm-arm/init.h uses a strange syntax, @ instead of #, is that OK?
