I came across this problem today while building a 2.4.12 kernel.
sparc64-linux-ld isn't needed if your GAS toolset is up-to-date.
The kernel makefile checks for this- but doesn't do it correctly.
I fixed the problem by changing arch/sparc64/Makefile thusly:
line 18:
- NEW_GAS := $(shell if $(LD) --version 2>&1 (blah blah blah)
+ NEW_GAS := $(shell if $(LD) -V 2>&1 (blah blah blah)
(I apologize for the broken threading- I'm just now subscribing
to the list)
