Which Kernel do you use on the Host OS ?

Heiko

P.S. Just started a fresh compile on another computer, should have some=

more results in an hour or so.

2.4.20-18.9   (the latest kernel update for Redhat 9)

OK.

I really don't want to have to run a non-Redhat kernel on my devel host.

I have 2.4.20-vanilla on my Notebook and it doesn't work there either.
I'll checked in a workaround, this should work .

Yes, that should work.  I made the exact same change over an hour ago,
and the compile is past the point where it aborted.   :-)

I wonder if that'll cause problems if the host system has a NEWER kernel
than the DL build?

I used to run that version, but I prefer:  2.4.20-butter-pecan
(sorry, it's one of those days ...  ;-)

Also a host system kernel that is too old break the glibc build.
glibc build is somehow checking the running kernel, I guess.

Very possible.  FWIW, the help in ./configure for that option says:

--enable-kernel=VERSION compile for compatibility with kernel not 
                        older than VERSION

That should usually not happen (that it's newer), but when it does you =
most
likely will have a problem.
