--- Comment #8 from ohartman at zedat.fu-berlin.de ---
This is a GREAT observation and regarding to my case, it is exactly the
solution! That mysterious kBuild compilation error is gone the moment, the
kernel is run with COMPAT_FREEBSD32.

On several larger systems I mainatin I disabled this feature in the kernel
config files - I had never in mind that the 32Bit compaitibility has such an
obscure impact on compilation.

Thank you very much for sharing this information!

The question is now: how to handle this PR? For my findings, its a bug and
needs to be investigated. For the personal point of view - the problem I opened
this PR has been (luckily) solved.

Kind regards,

O. Hartmann
