With default settings for make-kpkg the filename is probably a little
longer, here it looks like

linux-image-4.15.0-rc9-klappnase270118_4.15.0-rc9-klappnase270118-10.00.Custom_amd64.deb

I don't think that gcc is to blame.

​I think I will sign up on the gcc gnu help page and ask people if they have a test case file I can run to 100% confirm the GCC 8 compiler is running properly.​

​Once I am convinced it is then the next stage is to try to talk to the developers who maintain the make-kpkg program.

Did you look at the final messages
make-kpkg printed? If run successfully it should say something like
"building package linux-image-..." .
