Unable to compile kernels
I am using the testing version of debian; I have been using this for a
while, but I think gcc may have upgraded recently; it is 2.95.4. I am
suddenly unable to compile kernels.
When I do "make bzImage" I get
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.4.16/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wno-trigraphs -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -pipe -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -march=i586 -c -o sysctl.o sysctl.c

This doesn't necessarily happen at the same place each time. Also, once
this happens, even if I am working on another kernel, the next time I
usually get the following when I do "make clean" and then try to do "make
dep".

I did a search on google, and found several instances of this kind of
code, but not a definite explanation of it; there seemed to be the
possibility of it being a gcc bug.
I tried this with kernels I had compiled successfully two weeks ago and
got the same results.
I'm also noticing something about "fastdep" when I do "make dep" that I
hadn't noticed in the past, but maybe I just hadn't looked closely when
everything seemed to be compiling ok.
HELP, PLEASE!!!
Cheryl
