Hi,
change the HOSTCFLAGS in /usr/src/linux/Makefile and CFLAGS_NSR/CFLAGS in
/usr/src/linux/arch/i386/Makefile to
-O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -Wall
and avoid using any optimized compiler, use gcc-2.7.2.3 or 2.95.2
if you want a stable kernel.

that policy would also keep them from doing clever things. (Doug Gwyn)
