Re: acpi module failing to load in 1.9.0 preview #4?

[Matthew Dillon <dillon@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

:r_esp is defined static in sys/platform/pc32/acpica5/acpi_wakeup.c.  
:Removing the static...

:..made the problem go away.  But since this variable has always been 
:static, since v1.1 of this file, that doesn't feel right.

:I did, by accident, build the kernel as well as the world with GCC v4.1,

:Apologies if this is user error, and I have a workaround with the

    hmm.  Try making it static again, but remove the '= 0' assignment
    (make it the same as the other r_xxx declarations).

    The problem is probably due to an incompatibility between gcc-4.x's
    object file format and the kernel loader.
