Well, my hopes of flawless compilation of the ps package under 2.2.2d
have been dashed.  I followed the instructions in the FAQ, README, and
release docs, namely (1) removing all old gcc stuff (and all /usr/include
directories except /usr/include/X11/*).  I even removed the linux
sources, reinstalled them from scratch, applied patch 1 and the buffer fix,
to make sure all headers were unadultered. (2) ran the install script.

The kernel compiled flawlessly.  But, ps dies with a whole slew of errors
such as 

/usr/include/linux/termios.h:69: parse error before `tcflag_t'
/usr/include/linux/termios.h:69: warning: no semicolon at end of struct or union
/usr/include/linux/termios.h:70: warning: data definition has no type or storage class

I am afraid if you can compile `ps' with gcc 2.2.2 and 0.97 patch 1. You will
have trouble with gcc 2.2.2d since to compile `ps' with gcc 2.2.2 and 0.97
patch 1, you must have done something to the header files which will break
gcc 2.2.2d.

Solution: get rid all those `#if's of header files.
