[Pkg-virtualbox-devel] Bug#697892: kbuild compiled with gcc-4.6 -O3 works

How did you specify the 4.6? Doing that a straightforward way fails
for some reason. Would be nice if it could be also investigated.

Global switching gcc to gcc-4.6 with attached scripts did the job
well. kbuild can be compiled even with -O3 and it works. Do you know,
whether this bug with a kbuild/virtualbox as test case is already
reported to gcc?

Regards,
Andrey
