If you try to compile ide as modules you get unresolved symbols:
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in
/lib/modules/2.4.21-rc3/kernel/drivers/ide/ide-disk.o
depmod: proc_ide_read_geometry
depmod: ide_remove_proc_entries
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in
/lib/modules/2.4.21-rc3/kernel/drivers/ide/ide-probe.o
depmod: do_ide_request
depmod: ide_add_generic_settings
depmod: create_proc_ide_interfaces
depmod: *** Unresolved symbols in
/lib/modules/2.4.21-rc3/kernel/drivers/ide/ide.o
depmod: ide_release_dma
depmod: ide_add_proc_entries
depmod: pnpide_init
depmod: ide_scan_pcibus
depmod: proc_ide_read_capacity
depmod: proc_ide_create
depmod: ide_remove_proc_entries
depmod: destroy_proc_ide_drives
depmod: proc_ide_destroy
depmod: create_proc_ide_interfaces
In case the compiler or anything else could affect this, I'm running gcc 3.3
in Debian sid.
