I just downloaded linux 2.4.22 and applied the following patches: xfs,
i2c 2.8.0 and lm_sensors 2.8.0 .

The kernel is failing to compile, here's the error:

gcc -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux-2.4.22/include -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes

I've given a look a bttv-if, but I can't understand the error, so I
can't help more than this. I'm using gcc 2.95.4 .
