Hi Bill,

NOTE: Jim, if I am totally misrepresenting your comment, my apologies :)

I think Jim is pointing to the linux kernel headers, and not necessarily the kernel source.

The linux kernel headers that are used to build your local glibc, and hence even if you use the virgin kernel source and load that
particular kernel, you will have to rebuild your glibc against those kernel sources.

You will probably have to symlink the relevant directories so that when you build your glibc, it will pick up the virgin headers
instead of the SuSE modified ones.

Once you have a clean system, running on a virgin kernel, running on a glibc compiled against the kernel headers of that virgin
kernel, and then attempt to compile qemu with gcc 3.x, you will likely not run into any problems.

If you still have problems, perhaps you need to recompile said gcc with the virgin headers too.

Hope to help,

Damien
