[Novalug] Kernel Compiles

[James Ewing Cottrell 3rd]

And your Snottiness is getting old. You don't get to Preach and 
Proselytize without backing things up. Every time I ask you for Facts to 
back up what you say, you jump into attack mode.

I personally ran an F7 kernel with CentOS 5.2 and a CentOS 4.2 kernel 
with Slackware 7 and 9, which almost surely didn't have matching GCC/GLIBC.
