actually it took me 4 boxes to reproduce, I ALMOST thought I was crazy 
myself. Here's the error I get on that last machine:

as you can see my optimizations are quite modest. also PSAFE and other 
flag don't see to have any effect as this even breaks compile outside of 
lunar tools/optimizations. The only remainder is kernel headers or 
something similar, because they are different per selected kernel 
(especially with 2.4). What kernel are your /usr/include/asm|linux from ?
