That is not a common problem. All you're doing is compiling. It shouldn't matter what you are compiling, it should *never* reboot your system. I suspect hardware (of course), since reboots just don't happen under 1.1 with compiles on a regular basis. If it happens every time you compile something it is probably a corrupted filesystem or a bad memory system which is corrupting the kernel. Back to the original question, when you rebuild the new kernel make sure you have a 1.1.5 config(8) and 1.1.5 include files in /usr/include.
