Hmmm ... lines 175 and 197 both involve the IOPT macro, which is
changed by my 2.6.14 patch but not by my 2.6.12 patch even though my
2.6.14 patch says the change is needed for releases 2.6.12 and later. 

Those two lines are also the only places the IOPT macro is used, and
they happen to both be in sections that I change in my own copy of
cipe.  I suspect that I screwed up in trying to make a public patch
for 2.6.12.  My 2.6.14 patch was a half-hearted attempt to include all
the changes wrapped in switches that would turn them on only for
releases for which they are needed.  Try using it:

   ftp://ftp.netheaven.com/pub/cipe/cipe-1.6.0-kernel-2.6.14.patch

Please let me know whether this works.

Unfortunately, part of the reason I've never gotten back to cleaning up
my patch(es) is that I lost my working directory in a disk corruption.
