Well, all I can say is that I never had a problem compiling the kernel (from
Red Hat's "kernel-sources", i.e. it had a few patches applied - haven't
had a reason to try the pristine sources from kernel.org yet) on my Athlon
with 2.96 (latest update, of course).

Just as another anecdotal datapoint,
