At least, it looked that way, the driver for my ISA-pnp opl3sa2 soundcard
loaded. But later I discovered that only drivers for ISA cards where
installed. Today (with a bit of luck :) ) I discovered that the configure
script, with your suggested changes in /usr/src/linux/include/linux/version.h,
makes the script fail to detect PCI support on my system. I changed
/usr/src/linux/include/linux/version.h back to it's old state!
Btw: I'm using Mandrake 8.2.

The 'Can't read /lib/modules/2.4.18-6mdk/build/System.map' problem is
solved by making a symbolic link as root with:
[root@amd frans]# cd /lib/modules/2.4.18-6mdk/build
[root@amd build]# ln -s /boot/System.map
before running the ./configure script.

Note: I now get (Mandrake 8.2):
[frans@amd frans]$ locate snd-emu10k1 | grep /lib/modules/
/lib/modules/2.4.18-6mdk/alsa/snd-emu10k1.o.gz
/lib/modules/2.4.18-6mdk/kernel/sound/pci/emu10k1/snd-emu10k1-synth.o
/lib/modules/2.4.18-6mdk/kernel/sound/pci/emu10k1/snd-emu10k1.o
[frans@amd frans]$
The first and last snd-emu10k1 modules are respectively from ALSA 0.5.12a
installed with the Mandrake 8.2 kernel RPM and the newly installed 0.9.0beta12
drivers. At least the modules are in different directories, so the unwanted
ones can easily (though not cleanly in a RPM based system AFAIK) be (re)moved
if modprobe tries to load the 'wrong' module. Oh, I guess modprobe can be
told/configured where to look for modules first :) And testing, modprobe tries
to load the 0.9 driver (and fails because I haven't a emu10k1 card, only a
lowly ISA card :) ).
