Thanks for the input.  It compiled clean, though.  If the API changed, I would 
expect to see at least one compiler warning.  Also, the maintainer has reported 
tests and fixes for up to 2.6.23.

Searching the internet, this error either comes from compiling against the wrong 
headers, or a compiler version mismatch.  I searched the archives for this list, 
and someone else seemed to run in to this with a compiler version issue 
(gcc-4.0/gcc-4.1).  gcc-4.0 is no longer in the apt repositories, though... and 
I'm guessing 2.6.21-1-multimedia-486 was compiled with gcc-4.0.

Any idea where I can find a copy of the gcc-4.0 packages... or would it be 
easier to recompile my kernel with gcc-4.1?

Thanks,
Gabriel
