That's strange... But yes, I was able to build a 2.4.22 kernel with a
gcc-3.3 compiler. But I wasn't able to build a 2.4.20 kernel with it.

I haven't seen the 2.6.0-test6 kernel source yet, but it might already
be complying with the new 'features' of the 3.3 compilers. I tried
several times with the 2.4.20 kernel, and with gcc-3.3 it doesn't build.

But the question is, which kernel version?
