I wonder if things like this may have anything to do with my oops on halt
problem? I see these kinds of messages:

gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/include -D__ASSEMBLY__ -DCPU=686
-traditional -c head.S -o head.o
/tmp/cclusjwq.s: Assembler messages:

/tmp/cclusjwq.s:1101: Warning: using `%eax' instead of `%ax' due to `l' suffix

at various points during the compile as well as at the final link creating
the bzImage....

I'm using either gcc-2.7.2.3 or egcs-2.91.66.
