I expect GCC 3.4 is coming in 2-3 months, although there isn't a definite
timeline yet.  Would you like to try to get atomic kernel ops in 2.6.x?
How important is the kernel timeline for this work?  We missed gdb 6.0.
A couple of quick hacks allow 6.0 to build for hppa-linux.  Bug fixes are
another matter.

Probably, the v3 issues involve doing enough research to file a PR if
the problem is generic, fix the problem if it is GCC hppa specific.
If a problem turns out to be glibc/kernel related, we can wait for
a fix ;)
