Ahhh, that would make plenty of sense. If thats the case then I can
probably wrap up some of the changes I have made, and do one last build
to ensure everything flys right. Then once I am satisfied with the
outcome I can drop what I have on a server for you guys to check out for
yourselves. I guess I never noticed they had dropped that
recommendation..Thanks for the heads up.

I definately understand your point of view on the kernel versions. I

the reccommended gcc-2.95.3 for compiling the kernel.If your just
saying it should be fine without it I still think we should follow
the reccommendations of the kernel devs and use it. Better safe than
sory.
I don't know at exactly what point that recommendation went out of date,
but it certainly sat in the kernel documentation directory long after
it no longer applied. I think it was due to the relative instability of
the early gcc 3 series rather than anything else.
