Developers tend to fear compiler bugs, and for good reason: such bugs can be hard to find and hard to work around. They can leave traps in a compiled program that spring on users at bad times. Things can get even worse if one person's compiler bug is seen by the compiler's developer as a feature - such issues have a tendency to never get fixed. It is possible that just this kind of feature has turned up in GCC, with unknown impact on the kernel.

Fresh Off the Boat: Thank You, Jeremy Lin
There are three magazine covers I'll always remember. AI with the blow out and retro sixers jersey on the cover of SLAM (what up @microtony), Obama on the cover of Newsweek December 2006, and Yao on the cover of ESPN in 2000. I still remember the day I got it in the mail... Thoughts rushed through my head. Was ESPN gonna give him props or were they going to reveal he was a genetically engineered government project with fake papers, Pekingese Potstickers, and an affinity for lead based bubble tea?
