Erm.. why ?? It seems to be correctly complaining for a reason

According to Michael Deutschmann, who still uses v2.0 actively (and gets
this message a lot), the code seems to do the right thing despite the
complaint; hence the message seemed unnecessary.

Assuming the message is meaningful, rate limit the number of
times the user sees it. Or rate limit on time, which ever seems
more appropriate.

I am trying to build on Debian, which is on gcc 2.95.4. I get some
asm errrors regarding illegal registers.
I did apply a patch linux-2.0.x.patch to fix some other errors.
Is there a patch to fix this or do I have to use an older gcc?
