Compiling with gcc-3.0

Compiling with gcc-3.0

I'm not on this list, followups set to my email address.

Trying to compile 2.4.5 with gcc-3.0 gives me this:

,----
| gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.4.5/include -Wall \
|   -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer \
|   -fno-strict-aliasing -pipe \
|   -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -march=athlon \
|   -c -o timer.o timer.c
| 
| timer.c:35: conflicting types for `xtime'
| 
| /usr/src/linux-2.4.5/include/linux/sched.h:540: \
|   previous declaration of `xtime'
| 
| make[2]: *** [timer.o] Error 1
| make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.5/kernel'
| make[1]: *** [first_rule] Error 2
| make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.5/kernel'
| make: *** [_dir_kernel] Error 2
`----

Has anyone else seen this?  Is it a problem with the kernel or gcc?
Have I just stuffed up the gcc installation?

I don't see this with gcc-2.95.2

Thanks very much for any light you can shed of this for me.

So you should search the archives before mailing to the list.  This gcc
3.0 problem has been logged several times, together with the fix.  If
you searched the archives, you would have found it.
