Ack, that was a horrific problem report. Here are a few relevant data points I left out:

Kernels have always been compiled only with 386 optimizations.
        (tried 486 a few times, no difference)
Always built including soft float support (not that it matters so early)
Always built with gcc 2.95.2
Same kernel binaries work perfectly on a number of other boxen:
        A 386DX, a number of Pentium 100's, another 486SX, and a K6-2
