Doing an allmodconfig build on the kernel, I get the following:

It occurs on Maverick 4.4, 4.5 and CodeSourcery 2009Q1 cross toolchains. It's confirmed by Codesourcery here:

What's the status on this issue? I didn't see anything in Linaro gcc bugs that looks related.
Hi Rob. This is LP: #623945 'ICE using va_list with -g -femit-struct-debug-baseonly' which was fixed in the recently released Linaro GCC 4.5-2010.11. See: https://bugs.launchpad.net/gcc-linaro/+bug/623945 for more information. Note that Linaro GCC 4.4 is in maintenance and doesn't include the fix.
Out of interest, where do you pick up the binary build of your toolchain from? Self built? From Ubuntu? Some other way? I'm wondering about the best way you can pick up this fix.
It is from ubuntu maverick. This was my next question. As Linaro 4.5 releases continue, does ubuntu pick them up as updates for maverick?
Just knowing the work-around is good enough for me on this particular issue. Turning off CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_REDUCED in the kernel turns off this option.
