Yah, I remember this one, it was indeed bogus "else" in the list of if's...

I posted a new vDSO patch at http://gate.crashing.org/~benh/ppc64-vdso-20050119.diff

Now, both 32 and 64 bits vDSO's are linked at "0" and export symbols as offsets
to functions and not real function symbols (I made them consistent) and updated
to patch to apply against current Linus bk.
