This exact same error occured when I compiled a 2.1.5 kernel and the cause
of the problem for me was doing an 'options "MAXMEM=(128*1024)"' in my
local config exactly as demonstrated in the LINT config file for the purpose
of making all 128MB of RAM available on my system. When I changed it to
read 'options "MAXMEM=131072"' instead, the error (of course) went
away. It made me wonder why the example in LINT was not a valid working
example. This could be the source of your problem too if you used the LINT
example to increase the available RAM beyond 64MB using the MAXMEM option.
Aaron out.
