Thanks, this is likely the problem. The distribution is Debian stable 
with all security udates but the binutils are still 2.17. I was also 
wondering why the zImage was exploding from 2 to 5MB and why it spent
so much time in gzip at the end of a build.

Trying to add Lenny source does not help, bummer. Aptitude fails 
with an error message like "Dynamic MMap ran out of room".
