I built it on my i7-940. When finished, with both linux-4.7.2 and 4.9.30, and the rough edges knocked off, e.g. networking, X, Firefox working, I updated my "clone" script and cloned it to my i7-870. That required a bit more work to get a clean clone from the book's "setup" bits, e.g. useradds, the as-built binaries, and the book's final config bits, without any contamination from stuff I did in building. The system seemed to work well on the 870 too,
So to verify that those fixes to the clone script were "clean", tonight I cloned it again to one of my Conroes. The "base" kernels are just configured to boot on a generic box, primarily, so one of the first things I do is rebuild the kernel customized for this specific box. Not good.

CC net/ipv4/udplite.o CC net/ipv4/udp_offload.o Is this gmp's doing? Do we STILL have to deal with this misbehavior? I didn't use a --TARGET in its configure. Probably an oversight on my part, since I do want this to work on any x86-64 I might have to throw it on. I suppose I could get this system in a chroot and recompile just gmp, if that's all it'd take. Rebuilding it all from Ch6 again would take a couple weeks.
