My guess: somehow the CROSS_COMPILE configuration option got set to Y. This is the second option in menuconfig under General Setup. This value gets prepended to $CC during a build -- it's meant to hold a cross prefix, like "i686-pc-linux-gnu-", for cases where you're building a kernel for a different architecture. You almost certainly don't want this set to anything, since it sounds like you're building a kernel for the same machine. Go clear it out and try again. --K
