2.6.8-gentoo-r4 fails to build on x86_64. This was using genkernel-3.0.2c but I don't believe that it is related to the failure. Genkerenl dies with: LD init/built-in.o LD .tmp_vmlinux1 ld: BFD 2.15.91.0.1 20040527 assertion fail linker.c:619 arch/x86_64/kernel/built-in.o(.init.text+0x22a9): In function `late_hpet_init': : undefined reference to `hpet_alloc' make: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1 * ERROR: Failed to compile the "bzImage" target...
