Never mind the version of gcc, the x86 kernel doesn't build with the default kernel options because the ORC unwinder hits a bug in libelf (in objtool) that was only fixed late last year. It isn't even obvious from the build log what has gone wrong. David - Registered Address Lakeside, Bramley Road, Mount Farm, Milton Keynes, MK1 1PT, UK Registration No: 1397386 (Wales)
