mmmh,
i have no problem to test other ppl software and fixing warnings is a good thing.
does this mean we will have a linux kernel compiling without warnings in future ? We should define this as a target. i had no reply for my last patches in that sense and assumed they were to unimportant.

re,
walter

ps: is it ok to ask/discuss problems with e.g. binutils on the list ?
i had some problems with ld on alpha (crashes compiling linux kernel because of GOT problems). the maintainer was not happy as i told him to recompile the linux kernel :( but if found no other way to reproduce the error.

kernel/acct.c:366: fatal error: internal consistency failure compilation terminated.

I checked this and it doesn't seem to happen with my compiler (which is a newer CVS checkout). So I assume it has been fixed already.
