I downloaded kernel 2.4.20 and got the following during 'make modules'

; SNIP
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.4.20/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes
-Wno-trigraphs -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -fomit-frame-pointer

I didn't know who exactly to send that to, but I am definately sure that
isn't supposed to happen. I've attached my configuration file to help.
I'm not on the mailing list, so if you need anymore information, email
me directly.
Thank you.
