Are some versions of the compiler actually broken (and generating spurious stuff so overflowing this section) ... or are we just skating close to the edge so that minor differences in generated code push us over the limit. If the only reason to reject a compiler version can be fixed by Andrew's patch to change the 0x500 to 0x600 in gate.lds.S, then that seems a reasonable thing to do. -Tony - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-ia64" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
