Looks like you're trying to build an EABI kernel with an
OABI compiler. That doesn't work.

If your kernel is configured for EABI (CONFIG_AEABI=y) then you'll need a
compiler built for EABI. You can find one at
http://kernel.org/pub/tools/crosstool/files/bin/ that doesn't have a libc.

Thanks a lot Jamie and Mikael. I can not follow what is EABI or OABI.
But while configuring the linux kernel I enabled EABI. After disabling
it, make is running smoothly.
I have one more (silly) question on same, my intention behind
compiling the linux kernel is to boot RealView ARM under QEMU. Would
disabling EABI would make kernel unbootable with QEMU?

The kernel, no, but user-space won't work if it's EABI while the kernel
is OABI. I'm guessing your user-space is arm-unknown-linux-uclibc, which
presumably is OABI, so an OABI kernel should be selected.
However, OABI is becoming obsolete and unsupported. New projects should
be EABI.

EABI is the new ABI intended to be used with newer ARM processors, and
is applicable primarily for ARMv5 and later (though with some
limitations it also works with ARMv4T -- the Debian community
currently use this configuration for their "armel" architecture for
example).
OABI ("Old ABI") is the informal name for pre-existing ABI prior to
EABI, used with ARMv4 processors and earlier. OABI isn't really an
official name for the old ABI, it's just a useful to have a name which
distinguishes it from the new ABI.
With regard to that, EABI compilers all have "eabi" in the GNU
architecture name, e.g.
$ arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc -dumpmachine
arm-linux-gnueabi
I believe the old ABI may get deprecated and eventually dropped from
new releases of GCC/binutils in the not-too-distant future. Unless
you're using a really old platform (unlikely) you should stick with
EABI.

If you are using full system emulation (I guess you are, if you're
running a kernel under QEMU) then either ABI should work, in general.
However, building an EABI kernel does imply a different system call
interface. Therefore, EABI userspace (as used by pretty much all
modern distros for ARM) needs an EABI kernel. For backwards
compatibility, you can use OABI userspace with an EABI kernel if you
turn on the CONFIG_OABI_COMPAT kernel option.
