Make Error - gnu_indirect_function not recognized

I am trying to build GLIBC on a Linux 2.6.25 machine. My configure has
completed without any errors but my make fails with the message-:

../sysdeps/x86_64/multiarch/strcspn.S:47: Error: unrecognized symbol
type "gnu_indirect_function"
make[2]: *** [/home/Sreyan/Desktop/glibc-2.14/build/string/strcspn.o] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/Sreyan/Desktop/glibc-2.14/string'
make[1]: *** [string/subdir_lib] Error 2
(more detail in attached file)

Any idea on how to solve this ? I am using gcc 4.3.0 for the build.
What can I do to solve this ?

The config.log (attached) states that gnu_indirect_function is not
supported. Shouldn't the configure script failed if that was not
available ?

Regards,
