problems compiling alsa-drivers-1.0.16 into 2.6.25.4 kernel

hallo list,
steven rostedt asked me to pass this problem to this list, so here it goes.

when running make in the alsa-driver source  i get this error:

.....

the configure line i am using is:

./configure --with-isapnp=no --with-sequencer=yes --with-oss=yes 
--with-pcm-oss-plugins=yes 
--with-cards=virmidi,seq-dummy,hdsp,intel8x0,usb-audio 
--with-card-options=seq-rtctimer-default,support-old-api

it works on 2.6.24.7-rt7 kernel, but it don't with the 2.6.25.4 vanilla.

if you need any additional information on my system, please let me know.
since i am not subscribed to this list, it would be good you CC the 
messages of this thread to my email.

cheers,
