There are some bugs in the kernel that cause gcc3.3 to stop compiling.
The solution is to make the changes given in the url below

};means you have to replace
__u8 short slot_tablelen;
with
u8 slot_tablelen;
in the drivers/ide/ide-cd.h file on line 437
so always remove the lines with a "-" in front of them and replace them with the ones with a +

Doing a little bit of research, this seems to be a general problem with gcc 3.3 and kernels. Not sure what the gcc people are thinking of doing... also not sure what Arch should do about it. This issue will need more research.

thats why i couldn't rebuild my kernel with gcc3.3 =/
anyway thanks for the patches..
it always fails in the ide-cd.h with the __u8 stuff..
GNU/Linux: Share & Enjoy!

actually by the looks of it so far coders will have to be even more vigilent because the new gcc seems far less forgiving.
