Not too long ago, I started getting this on a firewallish box building
a 2.2.14 kernel after doing a major kernel reconfig.  I suspect that it
may have been related to including a number of the 'IP Advanced Router'
options, but I didn't bother trying to isolate the exact cause.  (This same
box had successfully compiled its previous 2.2.14 kernel.)

Before trying to track down the offending option, I copied over the 2.2.16
source, and (with the same kernel config) it compiled just fine.
