kernel package build problem

Hi.

I'm following this wiki page: "KernelBuildpackageDetailedHowto"

to build a kernel package that includes a patch to update the dvb
drivers to the latest cvs so I can use my air2pc dvb-atsc hidef card.
I successfully created a package a month or so ago, but wanted to get
up to date with the Hoary kernel.  The first time around I just used
the dvb-kernel/makelinks script to link to the new dvb sources.  This
time I figured I'd try the correct way, and generate a patch to do it
and then add it to the patch list.

I got a patch, and it says it applies fine:

applying patch dvb-cvs to ./ ... ok.

I don't even think that is an issue however since the kernel compile
fails in acpi driver land:

  CC      drivers/acpi/ec.o
drivers/acpi/ec.c: In function `acpi_ec_gpe_query':
drivers/acpi/ec.c:519: error: label at end of compound statement
make[4]: *** [drivers/acpi/ec.o] Error 1
make[3]: *** [drivers/acpi] Error 2
make[2]: *** [drivers] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory
`/home/byron/linux/linux-source-2.6.10-2.6.10/debian/build/build-amd64-k8'
make[1]: *** [stamp-build] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory
`/home/byron/linux/linux-source-2.6.10-2.6.10/debian/build/build-amd64-k8'
make: *** [build] Error 2

I'm using the following source:  linux-source-2.6.10 (2.6.10-33)

Any help would be appreciated.
