I assume from your next mail:

 >> building modutils-2.4.27

that this is the package giving this build error?

What host are you building on, eg. an x86 machine running
Linux kernel 2.6, Centos 4.5, Red Hat Enterprize, Fedora, etc.?
What gcc --version do you get? If its 4.x then its possible
the host compiler is too new to build such old code.

Use an older 3.x series compiler on the host to build the
code.

The problem is that when using a 2.4-series kernel, you also
have to use the tools available at that time.

Its possible you can go through the crosstools build, and
build an x86 version of the compiler, and then put its
path in your PATH before the host compiler, and then go
through the document again, and things will build fine.

Cheers,
Dave
