Yes i tried. Neither 'make mrproper' nor 'export CC=gcc32' helped.

I started from a config for my arch, and added a few things i need on
this system. Namely Appletalk support and some wireless stuff.

Nice script. ;)

Now, odd but true, this morning it compiled. I didn't do anything
different from what i did yesterday. Simply zapped once again
kernel-source and installed again. Who knows... :-)

Now it appears to be properly compiled. Even better, apparently i do not
need to configure grub as my new kernel is already present as
nptlcustom. Should i rename into something simply .nptl for the glibc to
work 'properly'?
