Will that cause people to compile test both? I have my doubts that will really work. e.g. a similar example would be CONFIG_MMU=n. The code is mostly shared and in the same directories, but people still break the MMUless architectures all the time. I don't expect this to be different with 32bit/64bit. -Andi - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
