The library is not the problem here. The kernel does not use it. The problem is the compiler and could be binutils. From the linux README : "Make sure you have gcc-2.91.66 (egcs-1.1.2) available. gcc 2.95.2 may also work but is not as safe, and *gcc 2.7.2.3 is no longer supported*. Also remember to upgrade your binutils package (for as/ld/nm and company) if necessary. For more information, refer to ./Documentation/Changes."
