Ubuntu Hardy Heron

kevin@alekhine:~$ gcc --version
gcc (GCC) 4.2.3 (Ubuntu 4.2.3-2ubuntu7)

kevin@alekhine:~$ echo "int foo(void) { char X[200]; return 3; }" | $1 -S -xc -c -O0 -mcmodel=kernel -fstack-protector - -o -
bash: -S: command not found

I assume that $1 was supposed to be gcc, so how about:

kevin@alekhine:~/linux/linux-2.6/scripts$ sh gcc-x86_64-has-stack-protector.sh gcc something
something

So I would assume that means I pass...

Does that help at all?
