20d0021394 [PATCH] uml: allow building as 32-bit binary on 64bit host
This patch makes the command:

make ARCH=um SUBARCH=i386

work on x86_64 hosts (with support for building 32-bit binaries).  This is
especially needed since 64-bit UMLs don't support 32-bit emulation for guest
binaries, currently.  This has been tested in all possible cases and works.

Only exception is that I've built but not tested a 64-bit binary, because I
hadn't a 64-bit filesystem available.

60b2737de1 [PATCH] uml: fix linkage of tt mode against NPTL
With Al Viro <viro@parcelfarce.linux.theplanet.co.uk>

To make sure switcheroo() can execute when we remap all the executable
image, we used a trick to make it use a local copy of errno...  this trick
does not work with NPTL glibc, only with LinuxThreads, so use another
(simpler) one to make it work anyway.

Hopefully, a lot improved thanks to merging with the version of Al Viro
(which had his part of problems, though, i.e.  removing a fix to another
bug and not fixing the problem on i386).
