  Analytical solutions are presented for a class of generalized r-modes of
rigidly rotating uniform density stars---the Maclaurin spheroids---with
arbitrary values of the angular velocity. Our analysis is based on the work of
Bryan; however, we derive the solutions using slightly different coordinates
that give purely real representations of the r-modes. The class of generalized
r-modes is much larger than the previously studied `classical' r-modes. In
particular, for each l and m we find l-m (or l-1 for the m=0 case) distinct
r-modes. Many of these previously unstudied r-modes (about 30% of those
examined) are subject to a secular instability driven by gravitational
radiation. The eigenfunctions of the `classical' r-modes, the l=m+1 case here,
are found to have particularly simple analytical representations. These r-modes
provide an interesting mathematical example of solutions to a hyperbolic
eigenvalue problem.
