I've looked into it a bit more.  The error refers to autoconf.h:
===============================================
 KLIBCAS klibc/syscalls/umask.o
  KLIBCAS klibc/syscalls/chroot.o
In file included from linux/include/linux/linkage.h:4,

Looking at the access rights only root can play with it:
-rw-------  1 root root  47664 Aug 24 20:44 autoconf.h

Just in case, what's the autoconf.h access rights on your boxen?
