That would be appreciated. I did that on my side, I also tried to build
a few 64-bit test kernels with gcc 3.3 and 4.1.2 yesterday and did not
find any real reason why we would still need -mno-explicit-relocs. Thiemo
said there was something like a modern gcc in combination with old
binutils. That's the comination I haven't tested.
