I get those too.  I've had glibc builds die for no reason in the
middle of the build.  It's not very frequent however.  I suspect it's
just a random kernel instability.

The last kernel I put out was the 2.0.35 that was put together by
Andy Coulthurst <andyc@svarog.demon.co.uk>.  

There is a new 2.0.35 kernel from Pat Beirne <patb@corelcomputer.com>
(in his directory on netwinder.org) that we should switch to now.
