Yes...  I've had periods where the compiler drops cores all over the 
place, and other periods where things work fine.  It's on a P4-1.7Ghz 
and has behaved like this since about last August.

The only variable is the kernel - some kernels work and some don't.  
I've spent many 10s of hours trying to track it down, and I still 
have no idea what causes it - except that some kernels ``just work'' 
and some don't.

Maybe it depends on the humidity in the room when a kernel is built 
or something - and I'm only half joking here !

FWIW ru, /boot/kernel/kernel seems ok now.  /boot/kernel.sig/kernel 
isn't.

I discovered the same problem here for a P4-1.7Ghz with -stable.

First thing I discovered: this only happens if you have -pipe in your
CFLAGS in /etc/make.conf. It seems something with pipe handling is broken
on these fast machines, which makes cc fail.

Currently I'm trying to figure out which commit brought that in. Probabilty
is high that it has to do with ipfilter, but I'm not quite sure. 

Definitively it is not a problem local to Brian.

Best regards

You probably caught things in the middle of the update.
