It looks like the Nios2 Makefile was patched multiple times. 

You should do the nios2 patch only once.  Try rename the old uCLinux-dist-test tree, and create a new one . Then compare what is changed in Nios2 Makefile.  If you want to config kernel, you should be in ~/uCLinux-dist-test dir, and  make menuconfig  Kernel/Library/Defaults Selection ---> (linux-2.6.x) Kernel Version (None) Libc Version [ ] Default all settings (lose changes) [*] Customize Kernel Settings [ ] Customize Vendor/User Settings [ ] Update Default Vendor Settings  Then <exit> <exit> <yes> . It will enter kernel config.  And after you finish kernel config, make linux image
