OK, I think I worked out a fairly robust build procedure for the
fast intelligent raid driver, standard kernel version.

List:

   fr1-2.0/
   fr1-2.0/build/
   fr1-2.0/src/
   fr1-2.0/src/Makefile
   fr1-2.0/patches/
   fr1-2.0/patches/linux-2.4.20-xfs.patch
   fr1-2.0/patches/linux-2.4.19-xfs.patch
   fr1-2.0/patches/linux-2.4.generic.patch
   fr1-2.0/LICENCE
   fr1-2.0/Makefile
   fr1-2.0/README

The build procedure copies a few kernel files into the build subdir, and
then uses the generic kernel patch to modify them. Then it runs make
on the build subdir. Result: md.o and fr1.o.

I made up a couple of version specific patches (visible in the patches
dir), but I'll need to do a little more work on them to allow inplace
use in the kernel source.
