Try running "dpkg -l|grep gcc", and make sure that you have gcc installed instead of/in addition to egcc. If memory serves, there are problems related to compiling the 2.0.x kernels with egcc, and so they have #error directives set up in order to disallow it. After installing gcc (assuming that it's not installed at all), you may need to do something like "export CC=/usr/bin/gcc" prior to building the kernel.
