This happens when the kernel is generated by a gcc which is much older than the
gcc used to create the binaries (which depend partly on the kernel headers).
Don't ask me 'exactly how much older', I think it's the difference between 2.95.2 and 2.95.3.
It's a chicken & egg problem.
I then build myself a 2.2.19 Kernel with a "recent" gcc and it worked.
This one is OK
higson@cyclops:~$ gcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/s390-linux/2.95.3/specs
gcc version 2.95.3 20010111 (prerelease)
Same here.
higson@debian.s390.org gcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/lib/gcc-lib/s390-linux/2.95.3/specs
gcc version 2.95.3 20010315 (Debian release)
the gcc on zseriespenguins.ihost.com (down again) is too old, and produces the
binfmt-4c46 error(s)
