Built a kernel with this just for fun on a Pentium D 940 system running
a 32 bit install of SuSE 10.2. It complained thusly relatively early
during startup:

Apart from that, the kernel runs fine, though its subjectively a bit
sluggish compared to 2.6.22-rc6-mm1 without kgdb. Its uname -a is:
Linux xenon 2.6.22-rc6-mm1-test4 #10 SMP PREEMPT Thu Jul 5 23:41:32 CEST 2007 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
I didn't even try to actually do anything with kgdb, though.
