english. 

No, seriously. All programming languages are same, more or less. So if I
will
say that most of such is done in C, will it really help? In case it will
(just in case): C. 

But it won't be enough to know C to be able to "rewrite kernel in your
sleep".

if (! op = kalloc(sizeof (struct opinion))) goto out ;

My opinion says:

If you are asking which lang is best, you are in trouble. So get yourself
out of trouble.

Grab a copy of ESR's Hackers Howto
http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/faqs/hacker-howto.html

Learn 2 completely unrelated laguages, like (for example) C and scheme. Or
java and PostScript. Try to think PostScript while in C and vice versa. 

Then read all books you find in sillabi. Then dive into deep waters. 

..
..
..

Now, that's my more or less my way to write drivers and hack here and
there.
I do not think it's the easiest or best way to do. Maybe it wont even work
for 
other people. However, I think that the badly needed thing to do is
knoledge how to enter "deep hack mode" and how to exit it. 

:out

best regards and good luck:)
