lenny uses gcc 4.1.3 for their normal build at least on amd64 and sparc

2.6.26 didn't have the NMI watchdog code anyway. Besides, 4.4 is on the way
already, so old version talk is moot. Let's just let Dave do his magic :)

I'm confused now :-)  So does gcc-4.1.3 produce the bad kernels or does
gcc-4.3.2?

I built Linus's current tree under Lenny and that booted up perfectly
on my Niagara2 box.

Also, please increase CONFIG_NR_CPUS to 256 in your SMP builds on sparc64
in Debian.  I'm missing most of my cpus with the Debian built kernels :-)

Probably I've mentioned this before :-)

No, Hermann's mail was not relevant, the new NMI code did not exist in
2.6.26.

I asked a question which was a choice between two non-booleans, and
you resonded with a boolean.  Please answer my question :-)
