I think I'll take that advice to heart.... :-)

I forced the build, thinking that the ONLY_FOR_ARCHS setting was
overlooked.  The reasoning being that the i386 code should compile fine
under gcc.  Lesson learned.....

Is 6-current stable enough to be used in production?  I'm having issues
getting a kernel compiled in 5.4 as well. Was kind of worried about
jumping to 6 until I knew what was wrong.
