[snipped from via-rhine.c line 123]
/* These identify the driver base version and may not be removed. */
static const char version1[] __devinitdata =
"via-rhine.c:v1.05-LK1.1.5 5/2/2000 Written by Donald Becker\n";
static const char version2[] __devinitdata =
" http://www.scyld.com/network/via-rhine.html\n";
[end snip]
Removing the const from these two declarations allows the file to compile.
this fits the explanition in http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2000-01/msg00823.html

works thus far (now to fix the vmscan.c deal).
