Please change "Product" to "Gentoo Linux". "Bugzilla" is certainly wrong. I fail to see what the problem is, we are working to get a much needed update in the tree as soon as it is ready. Where is the bug in a kernel that compiles and works as expected? mpango and myself both agree there is no bug here, the warnings are just that warnings.

I assume the intention of the bug author was to suggest that warnings often mean possibly unexpected and erroneous behaviour in corner cases. > I assume the intention of the bug author was to suggest that warnings often

This was excatly my itention. The kernel is working as expected, so there is no problem (from a technical point of view). If you're going to install production systems and you have thousends of this warnings you'll likely sleep not very well ;-)
