Q: Are there any known issues about gcc 2.95 for compiling the XFS kernel tree?

Yes. So far there were some problems reported with kernels built with
gcc 2.95 which were solved by compiling it with egcs 2.91.66. So for
now please use version gcc 2.91.66 (aka egcs 1.1.2) to build your XFS
kernel. If you are using a debian or SuSE based system this means that
you may have to find and install this egcs version. Please note that
the problems with gcc 2.95 seem to be restriced to the i386 platform -
on the ppc it works just fine with 2.95 for instance. All said for gcc
2.95 also applies to redhat's gcc 2.96. On the other hand the gcc
2.95.3 (20010125) from debian unstable seems to work.

kgcc on a Red Hat systems and are located in the compat-egcs package,
Linux-Mandrake systems it's located in the egcs package.
