There was talk on the linux-kernel list (added to cc: list by me) about needing to rebuild libc, and other stuff.
I ran into this once also, and just reverted to the previous kernel, and left it alone for a bit.
Have you tried rebuilding /sbin/init and linking it static? I had to do that in some cases, and it worked niceley.
There may be other tricks required, I don't have all the answers for this, just a "hack".
Perhaps someone can point you at a archive of this list (i quit maintaining one awhile back, sorry), and you can find the answer there. (You may also need to ask linux-gcc, the libc folks if I recall correctly).
