    Uh, no.  I am aware of that.  That, however, did not prevent it from
running the wrong GCC.  v2.4.21 of the kernel had a problem with 3.3.  It
would die repeatedly on the same line in ide-cd.h.  I did tell make to use
gcc-2.95 and it failed on the exact same line.  Removing gcc, which is 3.3,
gcc-2.95 which depended on 3.3 (this is NOT 2.95 in my eyes) and then
installing the packages from woody did allow me to recompile that version of
the kernel.

    I fail to see how 2.95 installing 3.3 somehow equates to 2.95.
