All,

I downloaded the latest mtd-utils snapshot from
git://git.infradead.org/mtd-utils.git and did a "make clean" followed
by "make".  The snapshot I downloaded was commited Jan 24, 2008 at
11:21 with commit tag e292b5fb39de2c6907ffe751391ae3bbd5603b91.

During the compile I received the following errors:

The type __be32 is not defined in my /usr/include directory.  I did
find it define in my kernel tree under include/linux/types.h.  Can
someone give me a pointer on how to get this utility to compile
cleanly?

Thank You,
