2.4.0-test2 requires gcc-2.95, and /usr/include/linux

Hiya kernel hackers.

Can we take it now that gcc versions older than 2.95 can't be used for
compiling the kernel, and therefore 2.95 and newer are now officially
considered safe? In 2.4.0-test2, sched.c won't compile with 2.7.2; the
__cacheline_aligned macro causes problems.

Also, what's the official stance on what headers should be in
/usr/include/linux? The glibc 2.1.3 documentation says that
/usr/include/linux and usr/include/asm should be symlinks into the source
tree, but this hasn't been true for a long time now. Where should we get
the "new" headers from?
