: Ouch.  That's dangerous.

Yes, I know. :-)  However, it isn't as dangerous as you think, because
-k will not build those things that depend on things that failed,
while -i will try.

: Consider what happens when GCC craps out when compiling a little-used
: library file.  You could end up with garbage linked into your kernel or
: applications.

Applications only.  The kernel build doesn't depend on anything
installed.
