I used gcc 2.7.2p to compile the kernel with floppy as both a module and not. I had not problems. Here is are the flags: gcc-pentium -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strength-reduce -pipe -malign-loops=2 -malign-jumps=2 -malign-functions=2 -DCPU=586 -c -o floppy.o floppy.c
This was done using patch level 9 which I compiled myself from the patched up source.
In general it is not surprising that pgcc can lead to sig 11. The pgcc faq can be found at http://www-iss.mach.uni-karlsruhe.de/pcg/ More than you ever wanted to know about sig 11 can be found at http://www.bitwizard.nl/sig11/ I think it warns against using pgcc as a testbed for your computer. Usually the cause will be pgcc, not faulty hardware.
