Dear All,

I'm trying to access my Lustre (1.6.4) filesystem from an old IBM
pSeries cluster(the Linux is SLES9 for PPC64). I've built and started
the patched kernel 2.6.18 and tried to compile the latest Lustre
tarball, 1.6.4.2. It does configure, but dies at compile time saying
following:

============

============

Could you please advice me whether there is a possibility to build
Listre on PPC64, and if yes how to workaround the compile problems?
Thank you very much in advance!
