Just out of curiosity, have you used kgcc for etherboot? I would be
willing to bet that it would work pretty well not only for etherboot,
but also fix most of the other "problems" you've been having. move
/usr/bin/gcc to /usr/bin/gcc.orig and symlink /usr/bin/kgcc to
/usr/bin/gcc bet your custom kernel(I assume you mean a non RH provided
kernel) and etherboot compilation troubles go away.
