Hi, Following #644417 I've reverted kFreeBSD 8.2 builds to use GCC 4.4 with -fno-gcse flag, which was the only combination that fixed the regression my my hardware.
Reenabling -fgcse would require finding and fixing a bug either in kFreeBSD or in GCC, so far it is unknown which one. Reenabling GCC 4.6 would require fixing another (or maybe the same) bug, since "gcc-4.6 -fno-gcse" doesn't seem to be enough to get a working kernel (at least on my hardware). Aiming at GCC 4.5 seems simpler: In my local tests "gcc-4.5 -fno-gcse" appears to work, so I've uploaded a version of kFreeBSD 8.2 built with GCC 4.5 to experimental. If you're using kFreeBSD 8.2, please consider installing the corresponding kfreebsd-image-8.2* package and test it as extensively as possible.
