PPC has been retrogaded in ports recently since apple dropped that arch=20 in favor of x86. The compiler is not custom. It came from the ubuntu archive. I don't think the compiler is the culprit in this case because all of=20 the kernels built before 2.6.29 are working OK (I could be wrong, but it's unlikely). I have a sid debian sparc available. I'll try to build a kernel with=20 that compiler and try if it changes anything. Seb
