Please also RTFM: http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/Manual?stickboard=yosemite ,
especially section "6.2. Kernel Configuration and Compilation":
http://www.denx.de/wiki/view/DULG/LinuxConfiguration#Section_6.2.

Note that I selected the DULG-version  for  a  board  for  which  2.6
kernel support is available.

This is a consequence of wrong make commands.

You must pass correct ARCH= and CROSS_COMPILE= arguments when running
make, i. e.

	make ARCH=ppc CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_6xx- ... menuconfig

etc. Also make sure to start from a clean  source  tree,  i.  e.  run
"make mrproper" to clean up before configuring your board.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk

After doing "make mrproper" and again following the README file that came with ELDK:

env | grep -e ARCH -e COMPILE
ARCH=ppc
CROSS_COMPILE=ppc_6xx-
