Hi,

I cannot seem to get YDL 4.1 to work on a Powermac G5 Single (Powermac 9,1). It installs ok but once I reboot the thing locks up abotu 30 minutes after boot and after a while starts outputting the following messages:

hda: lost interrupt
mipc_enable_irq timeout


It seems to work fine, however, on a Dual-Proc 2.0 or 2.7 machine. Furthermore, if I use one of the dual-proc machines to try and compile a new kernel (a stock kernel... i.e. 2.6.15.6) using the default config (from arch/powerpc/configs/g5_defconfig) it will not compile. I get the following error message:

From comments on the linuxppc64-dev mailing list, it looks like the above compile error is caused by a bug in the gcc compiler. Specifically, GCC PR26610. It is supposedly fixed the GCC 4.x and will not be fixed in 3.4.x

http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=26610

Any chance of getting a compiler that works as an update to YDL 4.1? As it stands right now I can't compile a kernel under 4.1... I have to compile it under an older 4.0 machines and then install it on the 4.1 machine.
