I now have 3 hosts like this one. Too few vservers on it at the moment, but it
will be more relevant when going full production next weeks.

As said upper, I've now done it for 3 target hosts (PIII 1400, PIII1113,
PIII866), and even when mixing gcc3.3mdk and gcc3.4mdk, It went fine. I could
have tried with gcc-4.0mdk, but I didn't have time to play with fire ;-) (And
the kernel does not compile with 4.0, as I read)

Ok, the hard part...

A litte fun for the week-end : I've ported vs-2.0 for kernel 2.6.12.4 to
kernel 2.6.12.5 ! I'm proud of it, it's my first kernel patch :

[nayco@ Vservers]$ ls patch-2.6.12*
patch-2.6.12.4-vs2.0.diff patch-2.6.12.5-vs2.0.diff
