Well it doesn't build on x86-64 for me:

  CHK     include/linux/compile.h
  CC      arch/x86/ia32/../../../fs/compat_binfmt_elf.o
Assembler messages:
Fatal error: can't create arch/x86/ia32/../../../fs/.tmp_compat_binfmt_elf.o: No such file or directory
make[2]: *** [arch/x86/ia32/../../../fs/compat_binfmt_elf.o] Error 2

I will post the .config if anyone is interested.

Thanks,
Rafael
