I'm still building mainline with gcc-4.1.2, using: git revert 815f0ddb346c1960 # "include/linux/compiler*.h: make compiler-*.h mutually exclusive" git revert cafa0010cd51fb71 # "Raise the minimum required gcc version to 4.6" leading to one recent bug fix: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20180823212738.18431-1-geert@linux-m68k.or= g/ and two code improvements: https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20180823212436.17423-1-geert@linux-m68k.or= g/ https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/20180823213027.18856-1-geert@linux-m68k.or= g/ Gr{oetje,eeting}s, Geert --=20 Geert Uytterhoeven -- There's lots of Linux beyond ia32 -- geert@linux-m68k= .org In personal conversations with technical people, I call myself a hacker.
