Re: emacs-22.2 patch for Linux/SPARC

    The following patch was required to get emacs-22.2 to build on
    Linux/SPARC.

Thanks for showing us this patch, but you can't build Emacs on Linux
alone.  Linux is just a kernel.

To build or run Emacs, you need a GNU/Linux system.  We, the GNU
Project, are the principal developers of that system, but if you call
it "Linux", you give us none of the credit.  Would you please call it
GNU/Linux?

See http://www.gnu.org/gnu/linux-and-gnu.html for more explanation.
And http://www.gnu.org/gnu/gnu-linux-faq.html.
