Public bug reported:

I am trying to compile the 2.6.18.1 Vanilla kernel (from kernel.org) on
a iMac G5 (revA), using a fresh install of Edgy PPC.

Basically, I attempt to make the kernel after all the neccessary setup
and configuration (defconfig_g5) using this command: make-kpkg -initrd
--revision=g5 kernel_image kernel_headers modules_image

Everything goes well until the very end of making the kernel
image/package (but before making the modules), when it returns the
following error and dies:

arch/powerpc/boot/prom.o: In function `claim':
prom.c:(.text+0x764): undefined reference to `__stack_chk_fail'
arch/powerpc/boot/stdio.o: In function `number':
stdio.c:(.text+0x470): undefined reference to `__stack_chk_fail'
make[2]: *** [arch/powerpc/boot/zImage.vmode] Error 1
make[1]: *** [zImage] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.18.1'
make: *** [debian/stamp-build-kernel] Error 2

The process I use works on Dapper but not edgy, so I don't think it's
the kernel source but something else.

Another PPC user experiencing the same problem said he found the kernel
image in the Linux directory, so it makes me think this bug is something
to do with the make-kpkg command.
