From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.0.1) Gecko/20020830

Description of problem:
on rh 8.0 (i suppose before also)

because of line 277 of the Makefile in the kernel source:
"kbuild_2_11_nostdinc    := -nostdinc $(shell $(CC) -print-search-dirs | sed -ne
's/install: \(.*\)/-I \1include/gp')"


when $LANG is set to fr_FR for example

gcc -print-search-dirs results:
4]# gcc -print-search-dirs
installis: /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/3.2/
programmes: =/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386


installis: != install:
 so included dirs aren't there and it doesn't compile


Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):


How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.cd /usr/src/linux-2.4.18-14
2.put a .config there
3.make dep bzImage    on a fr_FR system

This has been fixed in the base kernel tree by forcing LANG=C on that command
