Control: forcemerge 841438 841500
Hi Eric, Sorry to hear you ran into issues with gcc-6.

I have merged your bug into #841419 accordingly. I believe it is possible to compile the kernel with gcc-5. I hope you will consider that an acceptable workaround for you in the interim while we solve #841419. Thanks, ~Niels
