While compiling the latest gentoo-dev-sources, a compilation error was encountered... Kernel version: 2.6.3 success/failure matrix using the same .config file: 1) WORKS: stock vanilla kernel 2) WORKS: gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.3-r1 3) FAILS: gentoo-dev-sources-2.6.3-r2 Something changed between '-r1' and '-r2' that either created or surfaced this bug, and is exclusive to Gentoo's kernel offering... Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. create 3 separate trees: 1) vanilla kernel, 2) -r1, 3) -r2 2. copy the (attached) .config into each and run: make oldconfig 3. make bzImage Actual Results: make[1]: `arch/x86_64/kernel/asm-offsets.s' is up to date.

Created attachment 26372 [details] Kernel .config file that reproduces the error
Still having this problem with 2.6.4?
linux-2.6.4-gentoo-r1 is now successfully compiling both the kernel and modules properly using the prior attached .config file... Thank you for resolving this...
