Thats the important biot "Having the known kernel bugs fixed". As the
error message says

#warning "This code is tested with gcc 2.7.2.x only. Using egcs/gcc 2.8.x needs"#warning "additional patches that have not been sufficiently tested to include by"
#warning "default."
#error "Remove this if you have applied the gcc 2.8/egcs patches and wish to use them"

If you do set up a "this is the patch set needed for egcs" web site please
give me the URL and I'll including it in the #warning block above.
