FYI

I just discovered a potential gcc bug which causes kvm-userspace builds to
break.
I looks like it happens only with the latest fedora rawhide gcc 4.4
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=489753

The following patch circumvents this problem by just renaming R to REG.
People facing the same problem might find this patch useful.

Adding a space between the R is a much better fix, since nothing guarantees
gcc won't use "REG" in the future too.

Eduardo sent a fix for this a while ago, but it was not applied.


Jakub just closed the bug. It works as designed:

Shall I send another patch with spaces or do you plan to apply Eduardo's patch?
