I don't think so. My kernel sources were straight from kernel.org,
and I made sure that the kernel Makefile pointed to gcc and not kgcc.
(The Documentation/Changes file said that Redhat's 2.96 branch was
suitable for compilation.) So, I'm pretty sure that I'm using the
same kernel to compile both the kernel and lm_sensors.
