linux-kernel 2.1.130/VGER and egcs-2.92.23

[teunis <teunis at computersupportcentre dot com>]

For those who don't have linux-2.1.130 source I'm not providing enough
info here to properly diagnose...  tell me what to provide as I don't have
a working @#@#$^ web browser so can't read the docs.

linux-2.1.125-130 (VGER), lotsa other details.
Cyrix 6x86-200+ (non-MMX so pentium optimizations chosen).
Older egcs works.
Newer egcs spits out:
