Yes, there's some  bug  in the nvidia  source,  which prevent it  from
compiling on 2.6.19/i386, see also:

http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/non-free/n/nvidia-graphics-drivers/nvidia-graphics-drivers_1.0.8776-4/changelog

I've tried with amd64 and there's no problem with  it, but with i386 I
get the same error as you. I'll check further and let you know.

Ciao,
