It's definitely an issue with our distribution and it is being looked at. In the meantime, if the build process is complaining that it isn't clean, you need to manually clean it by starting a Nios II SDK Shell and entering the following commands: 

cd $SOPC_KIT_NIOS2/bin/eclipse/plugins/com.microtronix.nios2linux.kernel_0.1.4/linux-2.6.x
make mrproper
touch arch/nios2nommu/kernel/vmlinux.lds.S

We'll try to address this by the next release.
