LG violates gpl? take 2

[Luca Olivetti]

Hello,
I searched the list archive and I saw a thread regarding a possible gpl 
violation with LG

http://lists.gpl-violations.org/pipermail/legal/2009-October/thread.html

in it Kim Kyoungae told that they honor requests sent to opensource at 
lge dot com (an address I just contacted, but see below) and Valent 
Turkovic promised to report back when he received the sources.
I saw no follow-up message from Valent, if you are here did you receive 
the sources?

Now, I found some LG sources floating on the net, and I hope that those 
are not the sources that LG is sending because what I found is not in 
compliance with the GPL (as per the source release FAQ):

1) the kernel is missing some drivers for the specific mstar embedded 
board (there's a symbolic link pointing to a non-existent directory)

2) the makefile tries to build a non-existent utility named ccdv (again, 
it's in a directory not included in the archive)

3) even with those bits removed, the kernel doesn't compile

4) point 3 above could be due to a wrong compiler: the original kernel 
is built with a montavista patched gcc 3.4.3 (gcc version 3.4.3 
(MontaVista 3.4.3-25.0.70.0501961 2005-12-18)), which isn't included, so 
I built my own gcc 3.4.3 mipsel cross-compiler

The file I found is a zip archive with the following md5sum

27e86d2f2e30ca3d02b3b2864f1b4ab7

its contents are:

the md5sum of 20090709155139_linux-2.6.26-saturn6.tgz (the only file I 
dealt with up to now) is

36483b84bad7865fd9937db6700d6f25

Kim, Valent, could you verify that this indeed is a wrong file and LG is 
really supplying fully compliant GPL sources?
