Well Olaf, don't compare SuSE with WOLK. SuSE kernel has ~ 30 developers, WOLK 
has ~ 1.

well, at least I can speak for me, that I had tons of problems with gcc 3.3.x 
and 0 problems with gcc 3.2.3. LKML also says, gcc 3.3.x is bad for kernels 
(yet).

My whole debian is compiled with gcc 3.2.3 also and there isn't a problem at 
all. But well, Marc: Don't compare Debian with SuSE ;-)

Anyway, I'll upload v4.10s-pre6. Please give it a try first before you install 
an 'older^Wbut working' gcc :) Thank you.

It will be available within this day at: http://wolk.sf.net/tmp/

P.S.: You don't have to CC me, I am subscribed to this list *what a wonder ;)*

ciao, Marc
