I posted this error message and a fix a few days ago, see
http://www.linux-mips.org/archives/linux-mips/2006-03/msg00132.html
Ralf told me off-list that the fix is not corract (as I sort of had
assumed already) but you can use it as a workaround.

The fix that was posted for this didn't make 2.6.16.  You need to
manually apply the patch from
