I am having a couple of issues with things that I am trying to compile and I am at a wits end trying to figure out what to do.
All of these issues revolve around nmemonics. If I try to compile any 2.4.xx kernel, I get an error, in random places, about an invalid nmemonic ';'. Sometimes the error happens in the same place. This happens with the kernels I have mentioned, and several other packages. Sometimes I can fix the problem sometimes by re-emerging the package. I don't know what this means. I think it could be my RAM, however after running a RAM tester program(memtest), I don't get any errors with my RAM. Any thoughts? Here is a copy of the error I get when I try and compile the kernel(one of them at least):
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.4.20-gaming-r5/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -Wno-trigraphs -O2 -fno-strict-aliasing -fno-common -fomit-frame-pointer -pipe -mpreferred-stack-boundary=2 -march=i386 -fno-optimize-sibling-calls -D_LINUX -I/usr/src/linux-2.4.20-gaming-r5/drivers/acpi/include -nostdinc -iwithprefix include -DKBUILD_BASENAME=evevent -c -o evevent.o evevent.c

Any help?
