Yes, I thought it wasn't ideal either but gcc 2.7.2.1 that comes with
3.4-RELEASE doesn't seem to be able to build the world OR the kernel at
the moment.
At least with the above steps I got the system up enough to be able to
rebuild world and the kernel with the 4.0 toolset.
I also had problems with "genassym". I had to build and install it before
I could compile the kernel.
Carl.
