Yo,

was trying to compile 2.5.46 fresh from source on my ppc machine, and
initramfs gives me an err (in make bzImage):

make -f scripts/Makefile.build obj=arch/ppc/kernel
arch/ppc/kernel/asm-offsets.s
make[1]: `arch/ppc/kernel/asm-offsets.s' is up to date.
Generating include/asm-ppc/offsets.h (unchanged)
Starting the build. KBUILD_BUILTIN=1 KBUILD_MODULES=
