ouch!!! dont ever ever ever ever ever ever (10000x ever) compile a kernel
with gcc2.9x, you are asking for trouble there have always been issues
with most compilers OTHER then gcc 2.7.2.3  read the kernel mailing list
(http://kt.linuxcare.com)  there are a ton of issues in the kernel(not all
of them problems with the compiler) that make for BIG problems when
compiled with something other then 2.7.2.3

in short, use gcc2.7.2.3 for the kernel, use whatever you want for
everything else :)
