This is a C extension that isn't supported in gcc-3.x, but *is*
supported by gcc-2.95. I know this because I ran into this
same error compiling lm_sensors earlier tonight.
I'm coming in late to this thread; but as I understand it, you get
the usual errors compiling the kernel with gcc-3.3; but when you
compile your kernel with gcc-2.95, it gripes about the athlon
switch. Is that right? If so, what keeps you from compiling your
kernel with gcc-2.95 but not specifying athlon?
