This looks like RH's gcc-2.96, or is it gcc-3.0? Try using:

     CC=kgcc rpm -ba kernel-....spec

That particular diagnostic message post-dates gcc-2.95, IIRC.

That's pretty cool. That's a compiler back-end bug. Which architecture are
you building? i686? Athlon?

If it's RH gcc-2.96, then you can bugzilla it (http://bugzilla.redhat.com),
but given that 3.0 is out it probably won't get fixed in 2.96.

If it's gcc-3.0, then you need to follow the instructions on the gcc pages
for submitting a compiler bug report (making the dump files, etc). See
http://gcc.gnu.org/ to get started.
