Yes, the point I was trying to make was that kgcc (or even old gcc
versions) haven't been included recently because the default compiler *is*
the compiler used for the kernel.  The reference to kgcc was just to
demonstrate that RH would certainly have provided a kernel-capable
compiler if their current gcc didn't do the job (at least as far as their
own QA goes).
