Ok, that's new. The below mail is about a very similar problem but with an 
older Gcc, and since these symbols are provided by gcc, this makes a 
difference.

Try removing from arch/um/kernel/gmon_syms.c these 2 lines:

extern void __bb_init_func(void *);
EXPORT_SYMBOL(__bb_init_func);

and recompiling. Better yet, try if adding the weak attribute like below fixes 
the problem:

extern void __bb_init_func(void *) __attribute__((weak));
EXPORT_SYMBOL(__bb_init_func);

Another possible thing to check is what happens with CONFIG_STATIC_LINK=y 
(edit it by hand and do not enable GPROF for now, that is yet another thing).

This results from allmodconfig? Mmpf, that is not so nice (allmodconfig should 
not result in a debug kernel). Even if allmodconfig is not a _smart_ setting 
(set to y or m everything).

Since it arrives to this point, get_safe_register should be undefined only 
because of the previous failure.
