by I got this weird error when compiling the 2.0.4 kernel...
I have GCC 2.7.2, libc 5.2.18 and ld.so 1.7.14...
gcc -I/usr/src/linux/include -D__BFD__ -o tools/build tools/build.c
-I/usr/src/linux/include

...please advice :)
(please, send a cc: to me, my ISP's news-server is a bit weird sometimes..)
