demo-i686.sh does not build a linux kernel.

["Rick Foos" <rick dot foos at solengtech dot com>]

The default demo-i686.sh configuration builds a compiler that does not build 
a Linux kernel.

eval `cat i686.dat gcc-4.1.0-glibc-2.3.6-tls.dat` sh all.sh --notest

This issue has already been reported:

Since Linus has made a decision to not support gcc 4.1.0 and 4.1.1, the 
scripts should be updated, maybe removing the versions that are not 
supported, or at least having a default that works.

eval `cat i686.dat  gcc-4.1.2-glibc-2.3.5.dat` sh all.sh --notest

The above configuration built a working compiler on cygwin, and the compiler 
built linux-2.6-kgdb version 2.6.33.

Thanks,
Rick
