I checked out the latest version of the code from CVS:
http://www.linuxtv.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/kfir/
Since the windows drivers for this card are long gone I took the microcode and
related files from the Attic in kfir/driver/micro/Attic and placed them in
the driver/micro/ directory.
All the MD5SUMs match the README except for kfir_micro.h
At first compile from the driver/ directory kfir_micro.h wasn't found so I
symlinked to the one in driver/micro/. I attempted to compile what I have of
the code and it failed with this:

That's where I am now. I know this driver has seen it's share of bitrot and
the last change to it was the port to 2.6 by Anssi Hannula.
Anyone know what the problem may be?
