Er, Horst, you know as well as I do that kernels are the last thing one should test the functioning of GCC with :) they depend on sufficiently many non-portable compiler-version-specific things that failures to work might very well be the kernel's fault, not the compiler's.

A lot of other stuff works for me here; I've not built a whole distro with it, but a good few hundred packages (X is core dumping but I think that's due to a broken local patch).
