Looks like I'm going to eat these words. <*cough!hack*> This
gentleman: sauron@angband.ee.ualberta.ca, has been helping me via
email from the very begining. Tonight he suggested a change to the
Makefile, which I tried, and it worked. I should have taken a closer
look at the Makefile on my own, so my tail _is_ beneath my legs, and I
feel a bit sheepish. OTOH: the Makefile _is_ broken. I hope the
maintainer takes note of this and includes a fix by 2.2! Also, I very
much wish to thank Jack Sauron for his help here! --jmg

[In original Makefile]

ifeq ($(CONFIG_MAD16),y)
L_OBJS += mad16.o
else
ifeq ($(CONFIG_MAD16),m)
M_OBJS += mad16.o sb.o uart401.o
MX_OBJS += sb_card.o ad1848.o
endif
endif

If you notice, compiling the MAD16 as a module includes a lot more
code...

Try changing that to:

ifeq ($(CONFIG_MAD16),y)
L_OBJS += mad16.o sb.o uart401.o
LX_OBJS += sb_card.o ad1848.o
else
ifeq ($(CONFIG_MAD16),m)
M_OBJS += mad16.o sb.o uart401.o
MX_OBJS += sb_card.o ad1848.o
endif
endif

And see if that helps. Send me your .config ( again? ), and I'll take
a
swing at it.
