Hi,

You are fast.  Was just going report this one...
Using debian sid with gcc 2.95.4.  Both before and after
appling the patch below I get:

ld -m elf_i386 -T /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/vmlinux.lds -e stext arch/i386/kernel/head.o arch/i386/kernel/init_task.o init/main.o init/version.o \
        --start-group \
        arch/i386/kernel/kernel.o arch/i386/mm/mm.o kernel/kernel.o mm/mm.o fs/fs.o ipc/ipc.o \         drivers/char/char.o drivers/block/block.o drivers/misc/misc.o drivers/net/net.o drivers/media/media.o drivers/char/drm/drm.o drivers/ide/idedriver.o drivers/cdrom/driver.o drivers/pci/driver.o drivers/video/video.o drivers/usb/usbdrv.o drivers/md/mddev.o \
        net/network.o \
        /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/lib/lib.a /usr/src/linux/lib/lib.a /usr/src/linux/arch/i386/lib/lib.a \
        --end-group \
        -o vmlinux
mm/mm.o: In function `kmem_cache_alloc':
mm/mm.o(.text+0x8154): undefined reference to `__builtin_expect'
mm/mm.o(.text+0x8173): undefined reference to `__builtin_expect'

mm/mm.o(.text+0x830c): more undefined references to `__builtin_expect' follow
make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1

Impling the patch below is incomplete?

TIA
Ed Tomlinson
