My belief however is that several million people have gcc 2.96-69+, about 50 are likely to have random cvs snapshots and none of them are going to build kernels with them anyway, as they wont work __builtin_expect or otherwise.

I will not add fuel to the fire, but isn't 2.4.XX the "stable" version? And I think most people (here in Europe :-) are running 2.95.2 at the moment. But, yes the previously patches fixed it.

Thanks,
Dieter

That's going to change in a few weeks, I suspect. Dunno about SuSE, but just released Mandrake 8.0 and RedHat 7.1 ship gcc-2.96.
