Sorry, I meant to get back to you sooner. I run into the exact same
thing with Debian, but not Arch Linux.
Here's the last little bit from Make on Arch which seems to work (I
don't have the means to actually test it though)

as86 -0  -o boot/crt0.o boot/crt0.s
(cd ../.. ; ld86 -0 -i   \
                -t -M -o arch/i86/boot/system \
                arch/i86/boot/crt0.o arch/i86/boot/crt1.o \
                init/main.o kernel/kernel.a fs/fs.a lib/lib.a
net/net.a fs/minix/minixfs.a arch/i86/kernel/akernel.a
arch/i86/lib/lib86.a arch/i86/mm/mm.a  arch/i86/drivers/char/chr_drv.a
arch/i86/drivers/block/blk_drv.a \
                > System.tmp ; \
                sort -k4 System.tmp > System.map ; rm -f System.tmp )
tools/build boot/bootsect boot/setup boot/system > boot/Image
Root device is (3, -128)
Boot sector 512 bytes.
Setup is 1596 bytes.
System is 117788 B (58784 B code, 7728 B data and 51276 B bss)
System is 66544
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/harley/Source/elks-project/elks/arch/=
i86'


Obviously the ld86 is failing in Debian/Ubuntu, but like I said, I
haven't looked into why yet other then the fact that it looks like "-t
-M -o arch/i86/boot/system \" isn't in the Debian/Ubuntu's ld86's
command for some reason...
