Otherwise use gcc-3.0.3(prerelease), it has fixes that makes the _current_ kernel compile. Obviously it's still full of bugs, it wouldn't really be gcc if it wasn't. I am currently running a linux-2.4.16-gcc3, where the only changed part is the use of the gcc-3.0 compiler, and a -foptimize-siblings-calls flag. It's running smoothly, although I havn't done any performance test yet. Btw. I havent found anything that compiles with gcc-3.1 yet. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
