You are hacking, too? I just started again, too, toolchain for now.
Picked up Matts GCC patch and right now (which is ment to fix PIC
generation and the shift to the new IRA), I'm cutting it into pieces
(so they can be submitted). Not yet working at real hardware or the
kernel code, but that'll come. Even it it was unexpected, I'm happy to
see you here, too :)
