Aha!  Okay, I've applied that patch too, and now I see:

  LD      .tmp_vmlinux1
/opt/nickc/H-i686-pc-linux-gnulibc2.3/bin/am33_2.0-linux-gnu-ld:arch/mn10300/kernel/vmlinux.lds:237: syntax error

Where the error occurs on line 237, which is:

	  __bss_start = .; /* BSS */
	  .bss : {
	 . = ALIGN(+(1 << 12)) *(.bss.page_aligned)
	 *(.bss)
 ==>	  }
	  . = ALIGN(4);
	  __bss_stop = .;

in the expanded linker script.

The problem is that your patch #1 is wrong.  You need to apply:

---
diff --git a/include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h b/include/asm-generic/vmlinux.lds.h
index a76275f..c9b16a6 100644
