2.1.96 won't even compile... ?

Hi,

I just download kernel 2.1.96 (full source) about an hour or so ago and it won't
compile on my system. 2.1.95 compiled just fine, though, with the exception of
a few compiler warnings about unreferenced variables. But still it compiled, it
ran great (in fact I'm still using it now). Whenever I try to compile 2.1.96 I
get this error when I do a "make zImage" (after a "make dep", and "make clean",
:of course):

kmod.c: In function `kmod_init':
kmod.c:116: parse error before character 0240

the build can't continue from there so it just quits. I tried the patch from
2.1.95 to 2.1.96 before I tried the full source and it wouldn't compile either
(not sure if it gave the same error). I'm using RedHat 5 and my gcc is up to
date.
