bootstrap build Error - rlim

[Joseph D. Lien]

Hello:

I'm wondering if anyone can help me with this problem.

I've got an old system with kernel 2.2.17 that needs an upgrade, so I make 
a new kernel 2.4.21 for it.  I upgraded modutils, and not much else, and 
things weren't working smoothly, so I thought that I should update gcc.  
when I ran "make bootstrap" it failed with the following:

../../gcc/except.c:2323: warning: integer constant is unsigned in ANSI C, 
signed with -traditional

I presume that there's a dependancy that might need to be upgraded or 
something, but it's not real obvious to me.  Any ideas?

Thanks,
