So gentoo recently broke the kernel, see

3ce120b16cc5 ("kbuild: add '-fno-stack-check' to kernel build options")

and you say you hit the same problem with -rc6 and that commit is in
there so your kernel is probably built with -fno-stack-check.

Just a stab in the dark though: if you build your hello world program
with -fno-stack-check, does it segfault still?

Thx.
