I checked out the latest buildrom and tried to build L-A-B for two targets, Serengeti cheetah and Tyan s2891.
It fails to build the kernel because it passes KERNEL_CC=gcc -m32 to make, and make interprets the -m32 as an option to make.
I'm assuming that there's something wrong with my environment, but I'm not sure how to fix it.
Its not you, its me.. :) I just recently (this morning) changed buildrom so that it passed about the 32 bit flags by default, to better enable building on a 64 bit host.
On its face, this is a bug from way back - we should be encapsulating all usages of $(CC), $(LD), etc in quotes. But now I'm wondering if we should bother passing the flags in to the kernel at all, since it obviously knows how to do the right thing.
Let me think about it for a few minutes and get a patch up.
