I run it on 2.6.12 from kernel.org, just linked ln -s 
/usr/src/linux-2.6.12 /usr/src/linux
I had similar problems when compiling with different headers than 
running kernel, and also enabling additional optimizations to gcc also 
gave compilation errors, so i used pure 1.3.2 without my modifications 
and 2.6.12 form kernel.org and it works for me.

oh.... sorry i forgot, i had to insert "#include <linux/types.h>" in 
some places... but i don't remember where, also
# diff /usr/src/linux/include/linux/mod_devicetable.h 
/usr/src/linux/include/linux/mod_devicetable.h_bak
10,12d9
< #include <linux/types.h>

simply hashed the __KERNEL__ variable and always included 
<linux/types.h> there

i dont really remember what was the real problem, but first try to 
modify the mod_devicetable.h
