[Bug c/16498] New: compilation of Linux Kernel kernel/posix-timer.c hangs enlessly

["hch at lst dot de" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

Compiler built using crosstool-0.28-rc8's demo-ppc970.sh (gcc 3.4.0, binutils
2.14.90.0.5, glibc 2.3.2), gcc -v output:

when compiling linux kernel 2.6.8-rc1 kernel/posix-timers.c, full compiler
command line:

powerpc64-unknown-linux-gnu-gcc -m64 -Wp,-MD,kernel /.posix-timers.o.d -nostdinc
-iwithprefix include -D__KERNEL__ -Iinclude  -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes

-O2 -Wdeclaration-after-statement    -DKBUILD_BASENAME=posix_timers
-DKBUILD_MODNAME=posix_timers -c -o kernel/posix-timers.o kernel/posix-timers.c

just hangs.
