I tried (twice) to compile a kernel from this source, and each time it failed. The messages at the point of failure were: LD arch/x86/kernel/apic/built-in.o CC arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel_cacheinfo.o arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel_cacheinfo.c: In function ‘slab_buffer_size’:arch/x86/kernel/cpu/intel_cacheinfo.c:1013: internal compiler error: Segmentation fault
