    Looks like you're trying to compile an ancient 2.4 kernel with gcc-3.4
    or newer. That has zero chance of working.

    Since that looks like a RH 2.4.20 kernel, you should probably use
    gcc-3.2.3 to compile it. Alternatively you can use gcc-3.4 with the
    current 2.4.31 kernel.

    Some 2.6-based distributions do have problems running 2.4 kernels:
    FC3 needs some minor tweaks (replace udev and module-init-tools with
    dev and modutils from FC2) but FC4 is a lost cause due to NPTL.
