Thanks !
Well this immediately begs the question : why isn't this included in
the patch ? Wouldn't this be a problem for _everyone_ who tried to
build ??
It turns out that in addition to rc4_skey.c, you also need rc4_locl.h
to be copied into the kernel source tree.
Everything seems to build now. I still get the strange errors about
"static delcarations following non-static".
Of course, I don't know if it works yet...
