    After pulling and rebasing to 2.6.25, I get  strncmp is undefined 
when  I try to link the kernel.

   I have not chased this down as  just added strncmp into
arch/ppc/lib/string.S

    But I would guess this is a side effect of changes to accomidate
migration to ARCH=powerpc.
    There appear to be a number of remaining arch/ppc BSP's that need
strncmp and therefore
    will not build in 2.6.25.
