compile error with 2.6.0-test6 on ppc32

[Christian Kujau <evil@g-house.de>]

hi,

upon compiling kernel 2.6.0-test6 on my PowerPC 604r machine (PReP),
i got the following error:


evil@sheep:/usr/src/linux-2.6$ make bzImage modules
make[1]: `arch/ppc/kernel/asm-offsets.s' is up to date.

(the compile-process was about to finish last time, then i got this very
same error, but could not save it. now calling "make bzImage" has a very 
less to re-compile, hence the few messages. oh, yes: i *do* have write 
permission to [arch/ppc/boot/common//util.o] )

i tried with:

gcc (GCC) 3.3.2 20030908 (Debian prerelease)
GNU ld version 2.14.90.0.6 20030820 Debian GNU/Linux
GNU Make 3.80

distribution is Debian GNU/Linux (unstable)

my config is on:

http://www.nerdbynature.de/bits/ppc/.config

i can compile 2.4 kernels very well with the same utils.

Thank you,
Christian.
