Did you do `make depend'?

It doesn't have anything to do with the current problem, but I'd
recommend using gcc 2.7.2.3 to compile the kernel.  Later gccs are
known to have problems (or more that the kernel depends on certain
idiosyncratic behavior of earlier gccs :) I think gcc 2.95 has a
switch to make it kernel friendly as well, but I've never tried it.
