Gcc 3.0 and 3.1 are so old that we simply don't care. we didnt support it for quite some time. If you look at that ugly version check you replaced: #if __GNUC__ >= 4 && !gcc41_inlining_bug # include <linux/compiler-gcc4.h> #elif __GNUC__ == 3 && __GNUC_MINOR__ >= 2 # include <linux/compiler-gcc3.h> #else # error Sorry, your compiler is too old, too buggy or not recognized. #endif it has a hidden 'gcc 3.0 / 3.1 is not supported' condition in it. So what i tried to point out that your patch causes a regression here - we dont filter out gcc 3.0/3.1 out anymore.
