[Click] compiling error with kernel 2.4.26

[Eddie Kohler]

Hi Guanling,

For now, try recompiling with SCTP disabled.  From the INSTALL file:

     If you get errors while compiling the Linux kernel module (the
     'linuxmodule' directory), and the errors look like they are in  
Linux
     header files, you may have turned on too many options when  
configuring
     your kernel. Return to Step 5, turn off the option that seems to be
     causing a problem (for example, an error involving the  
"atalk_iface *"
     type means you should turn off AppleTalk via CONFIG_ATALK), and try
     again.

We'll put this on our queue of things to add to the patch.

Eddie
