Hi Andreas.

That patch did the trick. Thanks. I have an additional question.

I have another older machine:
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
Linux Nokia-N900 2.6.28-omap1 #1 PREEMPT Sat Nov 28 18:02:37 CET 2015 armv7l GNU/Linux
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

I have not compiled there yet. This patch would fix compilation there also?
