Hi again,

this time I have tried to compile the kernel, with an embedded compiler 
on the board.
here is the result...

That's a bug in older toolchains, which is aggravated by a misguided 
policy that we build all wrapper platforms, always.  Either use a newer 
toolchain, or remove treeboot-walnut from arch/powerpc/boot/Makefile.

It would be good to know what versions of binutils and gcc are being
used though.
