Do you mean I need to discard gcc 4.1.x on the distro? Or keep both?

I use GCC 4.1.2 with vendor Kernel (OpenSuSE) 2.6.18.2 with no problem.
In next weekend I will compile a new Kernel. 2.6.19.1

I was not saying that *other* compilers don't work, but merely stating that a certain version of gcc does really well with BOTH (and most) 2.4 and 2.6 kernel sources. I doubt that gcc-4.1.x works all that great with some of the not-so-recent 2.4 kernels.
