This means your installed kernel sources are broken (incomplete).

<snip>

In the include directory, you will find various 'asm-xxx' directories.
Try making a
sym link to the one you are compiling for e.g. ln -s ../asm-alpha ../asm

This might or might not work. I haven't needed to compile a kernel in the
last 3 years so I'm not to scratch with this stuff.

Thanks for the hint, but no combination of links would work. I put 'ln -s ../asm-generic ../asm in ...

/bin
/usr/bin
/usr/src/<kernel I was trying to build>/
/usr/src/<kernel I was trying to build>/include
/usr/src/<kernel I was trying to build>/include/asm-generic
...and a few others

...replaced '../asm-generic' with the name of the assembler ...
'ln -s /usr/bin/as86 ./asm' and variations of that theme

Unfortunately, the error message was the same with all tries. No difference.

I tried with 4 other kernel source directories, one of which was created by
extracting from a *.tgz tarball. Nada, still the *exact* same error message
when using 'make <anything>'

I'm stumped, but I thank you for your responses.
