Hi Reiner,
I've issued such things while compiling using gcc-2.95.2 or gcc-2.95.3,
moving back to gcc-2.91.66 (aka egcs-1.1.2) solved such things.
But maybe it's not compiler related problem. I think that kdb output would
be a good source for xfs developers. Compile in KDB
(CONFIG_KDB,CONFIG_KALLSYMS,CONFIG_FRAME_POINTER) and really get a serial
console :)
Cheers,
Krzysztof
