Cool howto, thanks. Maybe that should go onto the TODO list over at 
kerneljanitors.org?

I already compiled GCC4 and it took about 15 minutes on an Athlon Tbird 1.4 
GHz to finish. When compiling Linux 2.6.10-rc3 with GCC4 there are lots of 
warnings (as expected) and even a fatal error.
So I'm trying to fix some of these warnings. They are all over the kernel tree 
and so I'm curious what would be the best method to split and submit the 
patches?

Thanks, Tobias
