+*** Compiling on GNU/Linux fails due to a missing left operand in gnu-linux.h.

+The error messages have the form:
+
+  ../src/s/gnu-linux.h:49:24: error: operator '>' has no left operand
+
+This error occurs because your system defines LINUX_VERSION_CODE in
+the standard header file linux/version.h but does not give it a value.
+As a workaround, you can edit the file src/s/gnu-linux.h to add the
+needed definition.  On the line after "#include <linux/version.h>",

+#include <linux/version.h>
+#define LINUX_VERSION_CODE 132626

+The number to use depends on your kernel version (the example shown is

+uname -r | sed -e 's/\./ /g' -e 's/-.*//' | awk '{print $1*(2^16) + $2*(2^8) + $3}'
