Wondering why I didn't see this, when I _thought_ I did the same
coverage, I learned an interesting thing. I'd been doing
make ARCH=i386 allnoconfig
make allnoconfig
...figuring on x86_64 host that I'd need to explicitly choose i386 and
that w/o an ARCH specified, I'd get the native arch... Not so. I just
end up doing the i386 arch coverage twice. :-( I'll go out on a limb
here and guess I'm not the only person to fall into that trap.
I'll now be using:
make ARCH=i386 allnoconfig
make ARCH=x86_64 allnoconfig
Thanks Stephen for the fix and for helping find this gap in my tests.
If my build coverage moves to Power like yours, I'll still be good. :)
Paul.
