Has anyone tried using Sun's optimizing cc compiler (for Solaris x86) to
compile the kernel to x86 assembly, assemble it with gas, and link with GNU
ld?

It seems possible for a user-level application that is source-compatible
with Solaris (because cc will output assembly with system call names rather
than numbers, and gas/ld fill in the system-specific blanks), but compiling
the kernel seems more complicated.

Is it very difficult to do / a stupid idea?

John
