I was having this sort of problem on a 'testing' system, when someone
suggested compiling with gcc-2.95.  It worked for me, at least for the
kernel.  (It didn't work for the pcmcia modules, but I fixed that by
using the kernel version.)  In the toplevel Makefile, replace references
to gcc with gcc-2.95 (assuming 'which gcc-2.95' reports
'/usr/bin/gcc-2.95').
