    I have a curious problem compiling kernels under RedHat-9.0.
    The compilation goes OK, but when I "make modules_install"
    and then "make install" the compilation restarts with many messages
    reading:
    ===================================================================
    make: Circular /usr/src/linux-2.4.22-pre10/include/asm/hw_irq.h <-
    /usr/src/linux-2.4.22-pre10/include/linux/smp_lock.h dependency dropped.
    ===================================================================

    I haven't looked into this deeply,
    but I didn't see any "circularity" on a quick glance.

    Has anyone else had this experience?
    Any suggestions or advice gratefully received.
