Hello,

The prepatched kernel linux-2.2.18.rtl-3.0 compiled with
gcc 2.95.2 on a SuSE 7.1 distribution, does not seem to
resolve the root UID correctly, even though on a SuSE 6.2 
with egcs-2.91.66, it works fine. The result on the first
system is, that all services or programs using some getuid,
will find that root is not root. is this a kernel or a
comiler problem?

thanks for some hints,
peterw
