Re: Linux 2.5.49-ac2

Hi Alan,

I'm getting the following compile error in 2.5.49-ac{1,2} but not in
2.5.49 (I haven't tried older -ac kernels):

This is with a 2.95 gcc (the one in Debian unstable). Compiling with
3.2.1 or setting the optimization to -O1 fixes the problem so it might
be an optimizer bug.
