Hi,
Thanks for the bug report.

The original Linux 2.4.20 does not compile cleanly with gcc-3.3.
The problems arise in files that are not part of the actual HIP code.

These two are actually our bugs. The reason, we have not seen these bugs
before,
is that we don't have access to an SMP machine.
We can't predict, how well (if at all) HIP will work in such systems.

Don't do this. The next patch (-36) will fix this.
The problem was that the addconf_lock symbol was not defined if mobilitity
support was not enabled. So I changed it so that if HIP support is enabled then
the addrconf_lock symbol will be defined (exported).
Could you download the latest tarball from the webpage and test it on your SMP
system? I tested that it compiles with gcc 2.95.4.
