What type of problem?  I assume the binutils you are building
against has 476 support too, correct?  You'll need that.

This could be caused by anything, but I highly doubt this is
caused by a compiler option issue.  My $$ are that you either
have a bug in your kernel patch or there are more places in
the kernel source that need patching.
