Compilation problems with 2.1.20, drivers/char/pcwd.c

(I couldn't get this through to the maintainer listed at the top of
the file <khollis@bitgate.com>, so I'm posting it.)

I ran into a problem while attempting to build Linux 2.1.20 -- the
code in drivers/char/pcwd.c does not support both Rev. A and Rev. C of
the card at the same time, but the configuration script allows one to
select both. Is there a way to (in order of preference):

- get the code to test for and auto-configure the card revision

- have the configuration script be smart enough to prevent specifying
both revisions at the same time

- have the code detect the incompatibility and report it with a #error
rather than failing with a compilation error?

Thanks!

Dale
