Actually I've made changes for this in my patch for 2.4.19-pre8 I've released I don't think it has something to do with compiler - something has changed somewhere between 2.4.7 - 2.4.12 that APIC vectorts are no anymore <0. My patch is modified for this though I've no idea if it's correct and haven't had time to play a second binary-division game to locate the real cause of this change (one has been played to discover the usage of -fno-common) -- .''`.
