   It is still a big issue when older kernels are compiled for example.
   
   Same when the other packages are compiled.
   
Andi, don't use modern compilers with old broken source bases.
I think you're being HIGHLY unreasonable about this.

   I guess you didn't do actual development on the assembly though 
   (= frequent changes).
   
Andi, now that's just plain rude.

It's easy enough to me to fix this kind of stuff up, maybe you'll
accuse me of not doing actual development on the assembly too, huh?
