make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux/drivers/scsi'
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `constants.h', needed by `scsi.o'.  Stop.
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux/drivers/scsi'
make[1]: *** [scsi] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux/drivers'

The header constants.h was removed in 2.5.22 (as its declarations
were already in scsi.h). [constants.c has been updated as well
and now other subsystems access it.]

When header files are removed or renamed you often need to do
a "make mrproper" before your normal kernel build. Don't forget
to keep a copy of your ".config" file before executing
"make mrproper".

lk 2.5.22 builds ok for me.
