I had a very similar problem recently, and I replaced my processor and found that fixed it. The problem for me was that every compile was destined for failure, not just the kernel. Compilation of source code is about as tough on the processor as it can get, problems that aren't seen anywhere else will be seen there. That's the way it was for me, no run problems only compile problems.
