Yeah, there si some brokeness there. Get the patch in the 2.4.25
packages i made available at : 

  http://people.debian.org/~luther/powerpc/2.4.25-1

And get the patch hunks which touch arch/ppc/boot, and it should solve
this problem.

Alternatively, you could just not care, since you want to use vmlinux
only with yaboot.

Or maybe you could use the above kernels directly, they are based on the
same -ben1 tree.
