Grab the snapshot from the 18th and run "make allyesconfig".  Then copy 
that .config in your current repository and type "make".

I think it's a simple ordering issue.  The dependencies are calculated before 
running "oldconfig", so if oldconfig enables anything that needs additional 
files to be rebuilt, they won't be and you'll either get a bad build or the 
link will fail.
