Absolutely not possible. ;o) Compiled with kgcc on Red Hat 7 (egcs 2.91.66). I've been building kernels with egcs since Red Hat 5.0 was released, no problems.
I've never used gcc 2.95.x at all, so I can't comment on it at all..
It seems my hard disk may be failing...

Hmm.. must be a different problem than I'm having. I've tracked my problem down to disk accesses to hdb. hda/hdc work fine, as does the machine sitting idling doing its job. If I do a copy from hdb to hdc it explodes. Very odd.. ;o(
