Which ggc version are you using?
(type gcc --version)

Try to compile your kernel with a gcc version prior to 4.0.

I don't know exactly, what you want to do....
Do you want to use an existing kernel config?
You can do this by copying this config to the root directory of your kernel tree and
running make oldconfig.

cp /somewhere/myconfig /usr/src/my_custom_kernel/.config

Now you can run

make oldconfig

You might run into some trouble with GCC 4.
GCC 3.3.3 should work fine!

What exactly is the problem? Could you give a more detailed description?
