I got those too. Harmless, but I don't know what does it mean. Also during make, I use make 3.75, stock gcc 2.7.2, libc-5.4.11, ld.so-1.8.5. It was already there in 2.1.8 and 2.1.7, can't find them in 2.1.6.
Note: I can't find any of those messages on logs from 2.1.7 kernels compiled with gcc-2.7.2.1 Objective-C snapshot 960906
In short:
Found Exception at sprintf (getname) in my logs?
2.1.5 stock gcc-2.7.2: no 2.1.6 gcc-2.7.2.1 Objective-C snapshot 960906: no 2.1.7 gcc-2.7.2.1 Objective-C snapshot 960906: no 2.1.7 stock gcc-2.7.2: yes 2.1.8 stock gcc-2.7.2: yes 2.1.9 stock gcc-2.7.2: yes
But it doesn't mean that gcc-2.7.2.1 Objective-C snapshot 960906 is any better, I may have not compiled anything with this 2.1.7 this day (unlikely, but not impossible). Just a way to explore.
