I can tell you for a fact that that check doesn't work on Ubuntu edgy.
'test-gcc-flag' greps the gcc --help output, which doesn't do the right
thing, at least on Ubuntu. I believe the linux kernel equivalent tries
to actually use the option and checks the gcc return code.
I was in the midst of tracking this down a few weeks ago when I
discovered other HVM bugs that apparently only show up with gcc v4 (bad
EFER values), so I moved back to compiling with gcc-3.4 and dropped it.
I'll see if I can finish it up and submit a patch unless someone beats
me to it.
