 The failure happened with encode-gbk.c, so what you should do is to do the 
 same build again, wait until it crashes. Then go into the directory from 
 which the compilation was invoked (from the output you sent, this should 
 be /usr/src/linux-2.4.19.SuSE/drivers/video/unicon), and do the following
 - issue the same compilation command as what make tells you was the last 
   command; this should crash the compiler again
 - do the same thing, but add the flags -save-temps to the commen line;
   this should again crash the compiler, but leave behind a file named
   encode-gbk.i
 - send this .i file to us, as this is what we need
 
 Thanks
