At this point I get :
/usr/src/linux-2.4.20-gentoo-r5/include/linux/usb.h:1117: `usbdevfs_init' 
previously defined here
inode.c:775: redefinition of `usbdevfs_cleanup'
/usr/src/linux-2.4.20-gentoo-r5/include/linux/usb.h:1118: `usbdevfs_cleanup' 
previously defined here
make[3]: *** [inode.o] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.20-gentoo-r5/drivers/usb'
make[2]: *** [first_rule] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.20-gentoo-r5/drivers/usb'
make[1]: *** [_subdir_usb] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.4.20-gentoo-r5/drivers'
make: *** [_dir_drivers] Error 2

What is going on here? I never had a compiling error with a kernel!
Hope somebody knows the amnswer to this one ...
