i'm running redhat 5.2, dual celeron, when i compile pre-2.3.30-5 with smp
enabled, cpu set to pentiumpro/p2 or with cpu set to pentium, i get:

make[1]: Entering directory `/mnt/linux/arch/i386/kernel'
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/mnt/linux/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2
-fomit-frame-pointer -D__SMP__ -pipe -fno-strength-reduce -DCPU=686 -c -o
time.o time.c
time.c: In function `do_gettimeofday':
time.c:262: fixed or forbidden register was spilled.
This may be due to a compiler bug or to impossible asm
statements or clauses.
make[1]: *** [time.o] Error 1

for reference:

Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/2.7.2.3/specs
gcc version 2.7.2.3

as -v
GNU assembler version 2.9.4 (i686-pc-linux-gnu) using BFD version 2.9.4.0.6

i've also tried using egcs,
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/egcs-2.90.29/specs
gcc version egcs-2.90.29 980515 (egcs-1.0.3 release)

figured folks should know ;)
