[parisc-linux] sh segfaults

[Grant Grundler]

Hi all,
So despite booting our shiny new 2.4.0 kernel fine and being able to rcp
the sources to attempt a native build, "make oldconfig" consistently
sees a segfault:

c3k:/usr/src/linux \<535\>make oldconfig > /dev/null

do_page_fault() pid=561 command='sh' type=15 address=0x000006e4

And redirecting output to /dev/null doesn't always work either.
Sometimes I just get back an error msg.
This wasn't happening with the previous kernels.

This is unfortunately on the same proto-c3k that couldn't run hwclock.sh
at boot up before though that worked fine on my c3k at work. So it
might just be the machine. If others could verify...

thanks,
