When I build the kernel using the ELDK I get the following failure:

Where is stdarg.h expected to come from if not from stdinc (i.e.
-nostdinc).  I don't believe there is one in kernel distribution.

I just had this problem and I'm embarassed to say I'm not quite sure
what caused it. I was building on a ppc64 box, but when I switched from
the ppc32 "cross-compiler" to the native toolchain (which is ppc32) the
problem went away.

Your cross-compiler includes this file in
<prefix>/lib/gcc-lib/powerpc-linux/<version>/include/ .

I had this problem too. A while ago. On 2002/09/13 I posted to this list but
with no success.

I found the problem in the main Makefile:

I have no idea why... :o(
