2.0.35 nls problem (make dep)

I just got the released 2.0.35 kernel. I may be an idiot, but I have
compiled a number of kernels before without encountering the current
error. When I do 'make dep' it ends in the following error sequence:
(snipped from the end of 'make dep >& dep_log')

-----
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux/fs'
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2
-fomit-frame-pointer -fno-strength-reduce -pipe -m486 -malign-loops=2

139
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux/fs'
make: *** [dep-files] Error 2

I have the NLS enabled and the code-page 437 config set. I don't know
what else you need to know (RedHat 5.1 installed on ThinkPad 560), but
I don't know what error 139 is. If I ignore this, the subsequent
compile eventually fails too.

Thanks for any help or pointers.
