Could you confirm that you compiled version 1.25 of at76c503.c
(MD5SUM b2f7bf06456987b996642321c4303972)
and that the above was the _first_ warning or error during the compiler
run? If yes, it would be really strange, 'cause it'd complain about the
dbg() macro there which was already used above this line (e.g. in 3278).

Unfortunately I haven't got this version.
Could your alternatively try 2.95.4 or 3.0.4 ? AFAIK 2.95.4 is still
recommended for the kernel source - see the 2.4.21 Documentation/Changes:

-----
The recommended compiler for the kernel is gcc 2.95.x (x >= 3), and it
should be used when you need absolute stability. You may use gcc 3.0.x
instead if you wish, although it may cause problems. Later versions of gcc
have not received much testing for Linux kernel compilation, and there are
almost certainly bugs (mainly, but not exclusively, in the kernel) that
will need to be fixed in order to use these compilers. In any case, using
pgcc instead of egcs or plain gcc is just asking for trouble.

BTW, your mailer doesn't set neither In-Reply-To: nor Reference:
header lines. Difficult to thread your replies correctly.
