While attempting to compile vpnclient-linux-x86_64-4.8.02.0030-k9 on my
2.6.25.11-97.fc9.x86_64 kernel, I receive the following errors...

[root at bwil150nhp vpnclient]# make
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.25.11-97.fc9.x86_64/build
SUBDIRS=/home/bradw/Desktop/vpnclient modules
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.25.11-97.fc9.x86_64'
scripts/Makefile.build:46: *** CFLAGS was changed in
"/home/bradw/Desktop/vpnclient/Makefile". Fix it to use EXTRA_CFLAGS.  Stop.
make[1]: *** [_module_/home/bradw/Desktop/vpnclient] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/kernels/2.6.25.11-97.fc9.x86_64'
make: *** [default] Error 2

When it says "Fix it to use EXTRA_CFLAGS" what exactly is "it"?  The
Makefile? /usr/src/kernels/2.6.25.11-97.fc9.x86_64/scripts/Makefile.build?
or something else?

Oddly enough, with a package name like x86_64, I would presume that it was
meant for the 64bit kernel, but it compiled and installed without errors on
my old P4.

Thoughts? Ideas? Verbose solutions?

Thanks in advance!
