1. Are you sure your downloaded file is correct? have you check their checksums?

I cloned from repo url's given at kernel.org:

nohup git clone -v git:// git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git &> linux.log &

and

nohup git clone -v git:// git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/next/linux-next.git &> linux-next.log &

AFAIK checksum is not needed with a git clone.

...

2. can you show us exactly how do you do compilation?

Here is one sample, tried with xconfig, gconfig, config, etc. all give the same errors.
