I thought so to but...

No. I build the kernel with the only version of GCC on this machine

I build with 
./configure --with-sequencer=yes --with-oss=yes --with-cards=rme9652 --with-kernel=/usr/src/linux-2.4.23

uname -a says
Linux jpff 2.4.23 #2 Tue Dec 9 11:31:53 GMT 2003 i686 unknown

Did that; no change.  driver, lib, utils and tools all build without
error.  oss says

That is consistent with alsa-oss-1.0.0rc2 making assumptions about
which gcc is being used and which library is being used without
checking.

So I have a dead system at present.
