I don't know how far back you want to go, but that version of gcc was
released 21-Jan-2010, fully 5 years ago.
I'm not wanting to go anywhere; it's simply the gcc that's installed
on my system. And I'm merely providing the solicited feedback.
However, if this util-linux can't be compiled with such an old gcc,
it would be nice if ./configure would report that. The same for a
minimum required kernel version.
That seems reasonable.
2.6.32 was 14-Dec-2009 and I don't see any nano versions beyond
linux-2.6.32.27 from 09-Dec-2010

Ubuntu Lucid is supported until April this year. Is it so strange to
try and compile a new util-linux on such a system?
I was really commenting about the linux headers which are a potential
location for the problem. In that case the headers are not normally
updated when the kernel is updated. They need to be consistent with the
glibc build on the system.
