I can't help you with the internal compiler error, but the reason your
core file wasn't recognized as such by gdb is probably be caused by the
fact that the kernel was compiled with the 2.7.2 compiler. There was a
bug in the quad handling. It has been fixed about a week ago. I think
the only new file you need is the md.m68k (or something like that).
