Probably nothing bad and it really wouldn't be that difficult to try. However, let's say I do it and it works, or I do it and it doesn't work. At that point what have I learned and how would it help me? I'm not against trying - I'm just not sure where it's leading? Toward a compiler issue? Toward a glibc issue? Something else? It would be funny to end up running Gentoo but *having* to build my kernels on a Fedora box! ;-) - Mark
