arla 0.36.2

[Asheesh Laroia]

Trying to compile this on i386 Linux 2.4.26 kernel, I get this error from gcc 
3.3:

make: Entering directory `/usr/src/arla-0.36.2/nnpfs/linux'

I added -fno-strict-aliasing to nnpfs/linux/Makefile, did make clean, and 
recompiled.  The kernel module compiled, so I insmod'd it.

I then did make clean again, set my compiler to gcc 2.95 (export CC=gcc-2.95 ; 
export CXX=gcc-2.95) to see if I could get it to build on my Debian sid system.

After waiting for that to compile, I discover now that I get the same error:
# ls: /afs: No such device

Drat.  Tomas, do you have a working arlad binary (or maybe a package with the 
other binaries) that works on Debian that I could use?  Developers in general, 
any advice on making arla work here?
