The definition of __i686 has been present in gcc all along; removing it will
cause other regressions (any code that depends on it will break), so
that's not an
option.
Will glibc-2.3.1 build with older gcc's? If so, why isn't there trouble
from
sysdep.h in such cases?
Volker, you are calling this a regression, but do older gcc's actually work?
If so, how? They define __i686 too, in exactly the same way.
