PROBLEM: 2.6.13, Inconsistent kallsyms data

When I try to compile 2.6.13, using a complete tarball from
kernel.org, the compilation fails with:

-----------------------------------------------------------
SYSMAP System.map
SYSMAP .tmp_System.map
Inconsistent kallsyms data
Try setting CONFIG_KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS
make: *** [vmlinux] Error 1
-----------------------------------------------------------

When CONFIG_KALLSYMS_EXTRA_PASS is set, the compilation completes
successfully.

I'm reporting the problem as requested in the configuration help
files.

I see that this problem has a history, but I'm not sure what
information I can supply that would be useful. If I can help in any
way, please let me know how. My technical skills are limited.
