Hello,

Me and a few others had came to that conclusion when we noticed 
--disable-plugin in the configure parameters. Kernel 2.6.32.48 with 
Grsec patch with CONFIG_PAX_MEMORY_STACKLEAK which is dependent on GCC 
4.5 Plugin feature fails to compile with this error: "Makefile:555: *** 
Your gcc installation does not support plugins.  If the necessary 
headers for plugin support are missing, they should be installed.  On 
Debian, apt-get install gcc-<ver>-plugin-dev..  Stop.". I haven't found 
any corresponding package(s) for gcc-(*)-plugin available for openSuSE 
11.4. I'm currently corresponding with Grsecurity on this issue. Thanks

Best Regards
