Calin,
I think the proper place for this query is the Mandrake Expert mailing
list, which can be subscribed to at expert@linux-mandrake.com.
Mandrake has been around for several years and I've used their distribution
(and often their kernels) since Mandrake 7.0. I think it's incorrect to
blame their "newness".
What gcc are you running? gcc-3.0.4 has worked fine for me in building
2.4.18 kernels on 8.2.
