linking ... boot.elf
e:/devkitPro/libogc/lib/wii\libogc.a(ipc.o): In function `__ios_ioctlvformat_parse':

i get the error after all the code has been validated

There is no mention of a compiler in the output, this is a linker error.

I would reinstall devkitPPC r18 again. It looks like your missing some files from it.

i reinstalled it and it creates no difference, i told the extractor to extract to the devkitppc folder

Simple question, did you tried : make clean

just in case it's trying to link old stuff with the new libs!!!

did the cleaning after it failed the first time,

EDIT:
Used the devkitpro updater instead of the devkitppc extractor which fixed the problem
