I figured the devs were way ahead of me. And I'm burning the CPU this evening finding that I can't compile 3.4-21 thru (I'm guessing) 3.4-38. I'm up to 3.4-29 at this point and already know that -37 and -38 don't compile on my box. But -39, -40, and -43 do. Don't know about -41 and -42 (and probably won't check them). Busy day tomorrow so I doubt the cpu will even get warmed up! It's pushing 11 pm so I'll call it quits on this exercise.
