So far I have only noticed a problem with a structure in
kernel/timer.c 
(I have not yet tested 1.0.1-PR1 and 1.0.1-PR2 patches)

gcc-3.0 doesn't like the differences between

/* The current time */
volatile struct timeval xtime __attribute__ ((aligned (16)));

linux/kernel/timer.c --------------^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

and

extern struct timeval xtime;

linux/include/linux/sched.h -^

I have tried to copy the content of timer.c to sched.h
and build and it did work, I mean I got a vmlinuz with no unresolved
symbol, but I don't know if this is a correct solution.

I have not took a look at the lkml archives,
I hope I am not bothering you with already known issues.
