I realise that this is probably my fault for using gcc-2.8.1
but I've been able to build 2.1.121p2 OK without apm.

With apm I get this build error:

make -C arch/i386/kernel
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.1.121/arch/i386/kernel'
gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.1.121/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O2 -fomit-frame-pointer -D__SMP__ -pipe -fno-strength-reduce -m486 -malign-loops=2 -malign-jumps=2 -malign-functions=2 -DCPU=586 -DEXPORT_SYMTAB -c apm.c
apm.c: In function `apm_get_event':
apm.c:475: fixed or forbidden register was spilled.
This may be due to a compiler bug or to impossible asm
statements or clauses.
cpp: output pipe has been closed
make[1]: *** [apm.o] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.1.121/arch/i386/kernel'
make: *** [_dir_arch/i386/kernel] Error 2
barley#/usr/src/linux>

This is on a NEC Versa 6260 laptop.
