Thanks for still maintaining this patchset. I sometimes have coworkers complain that they cannot build 2.4 anymore because they have let their distro automatically upgarde gcc to 4.x. I will be able to point your site to them. I was also thinking about updating my page on "linux kernel useful patches" with this last update, but noticed you still have a "patch-more-gcc4-fixes" file. Is it absolutely needed or just a cleanup ? > /Mikael Regards, Willy
