I've come across the following problem while trying to build my
own kernel on an Ultra 5, running the Redhat 6.2 sparc distribution.

I found another soul on the ultra-linux mailing list who had the same
problem in in 1999, but unfortunately there was no reply. So, the
question remains, how should one correctly 'configure fonts' when
rebuilding the kernel?

sparc64-linux-gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.2.16/include -Wall 
-Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strict-aliasing -m64 -pipe -mno-fpu 
-mcpu=ultrasparc -mcmodel=medlow -ffixed-g4 -fcall-used-g5 -fcall-used-g7 
-Wno-sign-compare   -c -o fonts.o fonts.c
fonts.c:61: #error No fonts configured.
fonts.c: In function `fbcon_find_font':
fonts.c:72: warning: comparison is always 0 due to limited range of data type
