When I try to build the Linux kernel version 3.6 with the gcc-4.7 nightly build Linaro toolchains,
$ arm-eabi-gcc --version arm-eabi-gcc (Linaro GCC 4.7-2012.09-1~dev) 4.7.2 20120910 (prerelease) $ arm-eabi-as --version GNU assembler (Linux/GNU Binutils) 2.23.51.0.3.20120918
I get a compiler error (actually, assembler error):

Hi Tim. Could you tell me more about these builds? I don't recognise them - where did you get them from?
I think Khem is right and you need a more recent binutils. The patch he linked to has been backported to the 2.23 branch and should be in the 2.23 release.

We make a binary build as part of each monthly release: https://launchpad.net/linaro-toolchain-binaries
This should run on any current Linux distro, and includes the latest stable releases of binutils, Linaro GCC, and Linaro GDB.
