Centos5 may be the important clue. I've found that
to build and boot an upstream kernel on RHEL5, it
is necessary to specify:
CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED=y
CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2=y
Without these, I was seeing a highly similar result
booting a 2.6.34 kernel on a RHEL5 guest. Apparently,
something in nash or something that nash uses doesn't
work without some deprecated symlinks in sysfs and
the resulting error looks like a bad initrd.

Anecdotally, I've also found that using make -j4 doesn't
always seem to work, so I always leave off the -j4 (possibly
especially in "make -j4 modules modules_install").
Perhaps one of those will help?
