Oh yeah,
I did need to tweak arch/alpha/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S a bit, as I got a
warning about a symbol being in the discard section or something like
that. I replaced:
/DISCARD/ : { *(.exit.text) *(.exit.data) *(.exitcall.exit) }
with:
. = ALIGN(64);
__exit_start = .;
.exit : { *(.exit) }
__exit_end = .;
Note that I haven't a clue whether what I did makes sense, but at least
it compiled and runs.

kernel build dependency on gcc-4.0?
Will gcc-4.0 be dropped as a build dependency for etch, or be kept? And on which architectures? Would you mind dropping gcc-4.0 from etch for some architectures? Matthias -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Currently, only hppa and alpha still build-depend on gcc-4.0. This will be changed with linux-2.6 2.6.18-1 (and maybe in 2.6.17 too, if we do another ABI bump), as soon as we get there.

The alpha maintainer said, gcc-4.1 is not capable to build the linux kernel, the same applies to m68k. Any other architecture can use it. hppa just did not switch on the last abibump of 2.6.17 and we don't plan another. Would you mind dropping gcc-4.0 from etch for some architectures? We need it until we drop 2.6.16 and 2.6.17 from the archive. Bastian -- Wait!
