Greetings Linux-ppc64 folks,

While trying to compile v2.6.36-rc8 with PAGE_SIZE=65536 I run into the
following compile failure w/ strict checking on a RHEL5.4 / gcc (GCC)
4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-46) system:

cc1: warnings being treated as errors
arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso.c:81: warning: alignment of ‘vdso_data_store’
is greater than maximum object file alignment.  Using 32768
  CC      arch/powerpc/sysdev/msi_bitmap.o
make[1]: *** [arch/powerpc/kernel/vdso.o] Error 1
make[1]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....

Any ideas folks..?

TIA,

--nab
