I didn't know that. Since when is this the case? Is this enforced by the upstream kernel, or is it an artifact of the Debian infrastructure? If I do build modules from source (in my case, alsa, which was recommended to me by the Debian alsa maintainers) this seems to give me the choice between: 1/ build the entire kernel from source as well, or 2/ keep an open-ended set of GCC versions around just in case a packaged kernel comes around that was compiled with it and I have to recompile the modules with the same version.
