Hello,
Because I don't know which maintainer to write I write to this list.
When I try to compile 2.4.2 or 2.4.1 I get the error:

I also tried it on another Machine, but I got the same result.
I am using a Toshiba Satellite 2800 Notebook.

I am using Debian Sid:
gcc version: 2.95.3-5
binutils version: 2.10.91.0.2-2
ldso version: 1.9.11-14
The config-file is attached.
Please also reply to my mail-adress because I am not reading the
kernel-mailing-list.
Regards, Florian.

Debian Sid currently includes a binutils that drops the option the kernel
uses. If you look through the archive you'll find a patch to do deal with
this, or you can just go back to a slightly older binutils
Also gcc 2.95.3 cvs snapshots aren't yet a recommended build tool for the
kernel. They are probably ok though. I've had no evidence to suggest they
miscompile anything.
