RE: KA655 Kernel Compile and Corrupt Object Files

[Josh Moyer <JMoyer%nodomain.net@localhost>]

I was just asking for more information about where to study and any tool or strategy recommendations, especially for analyzing the nature of the corruption in the object files.  external/gpl3/gcc/dist/README pointed me to gcc.info.  I will read through that some.  Thanks!

Considering how many issues there have been with the toolchain in the past, why do you think that is unlikely?
