mp table and gcc 3.2 and ....

the mp table (_MP_) is also ok. 

Now this is getting weird. All the data in all the tables looks fine,
almost byte-for-byte the same (I'm still working out what's different).  
But Linux never finds this MP table when loaded from a gcc 3.2-compiled
linuxbios. The same linux, booted with linuxbios compiled on gcc 2.96,
finds the table no trouble.

Any hints anyone :-)

how many people are building linux with RH 8.0, and these gcc tools:
