+===== sumversion.c fails to build after upgrading to Fedora 10 =====
+**Problem:** After upgrading to Fedora 10 it's not possible to build the 2.6.19 kernel. It fails with:
+<code>
+  HOSTCC  scripts/mod/sumversion.o
+scripts/mod/sumversion.c: In function 'get_src_version':
+scripts/mod/sumversion.c:384: error: 'PATH_MAX' undeclared (first use in this function)
+scripts/mod/sumversion.c:384: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
+scripts/mod/sumversion.c:384: error: for each function it appears in.)
+scripts/mod/sumversion.c:384: warning: unused variable 'filelist'
