(just guessing on the component)
I've been trying to boot a 4.0-20041030 compiled x86_64-linux-kernel. First
it exposed a missing -fno-strict-aliasing (now fixed) but then it crashes
during disk accesses. The problem goes away when one function from the
radix tree library is compiled with -O0 instead of -O2
I unfortunately don't have a runnable test case yet, but I can give
compiler input that shows the problem.
