[ltp] make bzImage error

[Tod Harter]

I didn't see the original post of this for some reason, but my first question 
is "where did you get this kernel, and what patches are applied"? Its a MDK 
kernel, which probably means its fairly heavily patched already. I haven't 
worked with this one yet, but usually the reason for problems like this is 
something like you have the wrong kernel headers or something interesting 
like that. Make sure you have all the proper SRPMS installed, that would be 
the kernel, kernel-source, and kernel-headers rpms should all be the same 
versions (but with MDK the patch levels will vary, for instance 8.2 shipped 
with kernel-2.4.18.6mdk-1-1mdk.i586.rpm and the curresponing headers file was 
kernel-headers-2.4.18-25mdk.i586.rpm).

And as Tino says, maybe just loosing IPSec will do it, you probably don't 
need that anyway, not unless you plan on building some VPNs...
