PROBLEM: while building kernel 2.6.8.1. for Alpha (Miata)

Dear Kernel Developers,

PROBLEM: while building kernel 2.6.8.1. for Alpha (Miata)

I first have configured the linux kernel using menuconfig option.
When I try to build linux kernel 2.6.8.1. on a DEC Alpha (Miata) on
Debian Linux 3.0r2 the following error occurs:

CC        arch/alpha/kernel/traps.o
arch/alpha/kernel/traps.c: In function `opDEC_check':
arch/alpha/kernel/traps.c:55: parse error before `['
make[1]: *** [arch/alpha/kernel/traps.o] Error 1
make: *** [arch/alpha/kernel] Error 2

What could be wrong?

Do I need to install another version of the gnu compiler/assembler?
I have installed:
  gcc version 2.95.4
  as version 2.12.90.0.1 using BFD version 2.12.90.0.1

Best Regards,

Erwin Schoenmakers
