We are still building ia64 kernels with 2.96 (-85 or -101) and we
haven't found any compiler related issues yet.

David Mosberger is compiling ia64 kernels with gcc 3.0, but I doubt he's
compiling XFS in his kernels.  The general concensus on the linux-ia64
list is that gcc 3.1 doesn't compile bootable ia64 kernels.

So all I can recommand now is staying with 2.96.  I would like to hear
any success stories with 3.0 or later compilers.
