Just to confirm -- you're now using 3.3 sources with a 3.3 compiler and
tools, right?

Wow, you must be doing some hardcore shit there if you need all that.
What bit-banging do you need to do with all that?  if you just added it
because it's in LINT and you don't actually need it, try replacing it
with:

controller	ppbus0
device		lpt0	at ppbus? # Printer
device		plip0	at ppbus? # TCP/IP over parallel
device		ppi0	at ppbus? # Parallel port interface device

You may not even need plip0 and ppi0, actually.

If you actually need the bit-banging iicbus, you'll have to wait for
someone with more clue to help you past yuour compilation errors.

Be careful about using LINT as a reference when you're constructing a
kernel.  Rather look at GENERIC and fall back to LINT where necessary.

Ciao,
Sheldon.
