[olug] Compile Problem on Athlon/KT266

[Jon H. Larsen]

Nate, thanks for the tip.

Well, on the 10th memory pass using memtest86, I did have two errors 
between 496 and 512 Meg that were flagged.  I'll be swapping out a 256MB 
DIMM for two 128MB to test the problem further tonight after work.

I'll report back...
