Hi,

is it expected that recent gcc 4.8[1] compiles the kernel correctly?
Kernels for ARMv5 platforms (PXA168 -> 3.4.52, MX28 -> 3.8.13) fail here
100% at early boot with

[    0.404750] Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 00210020

(this is a similar error as described in [2]).  Enabling heavy memory

[    0.000000] Backtrace: 

for the 3.4.52 kernel.  Compiling mm/slub.o with -O1 fixes *these*
problems but there happen other crashes later.


A kernel compiled for an ARMv7 platform (OMAP4, kernel 3.4.43) seems to
work (although there might be enabled other kernel options).


Are these problems resp. fixes known?
