I'm experiencing an odd problem during "make dep". This is with 2.5.22, although it happened with 2.5.21 too.

Below are the last few lines of output before the errors start. I can send my .config if anyone thinks it might help.

The problem is that the i2c code is currently broken, it includes 
linux/i2c-old.h which doesn't exist. You'll see the error much more 
clearly if you run "make KBUILD_VERBOSE= dep" ;)

For now, you should disable I2C in your .config.

Yes.  This is due to the "New and Improved Build System (tm)". (It's not
really new -- kbuild has been around as an option for a long time.  And
it's very certainly *not* currently an improvement.)  Get used to a lot
being broken in interesting ways for a while.

I just love the way the road to progress is paved with a high density of
nuclear land mines.  What a very lovely mess kbuild integration is creating.

I like the idea of "build in one pass", but that's kind of annoying in a
very broken development branch.  When I enter "make bzImage" that and only
that is what I (and almost everyone who builds kernels) expect to be built.

As one who used to manage source code for a living, let me share a simple
rule: never break the build system; when the build is broken, NO ONE gets
anything done.  One cannot completely replace a build environment over
night. (esp. when there are as many fingers in the pie as Linux.)

No its because a file was deleted to persuade people to stop using stuff
that was going away for 2.4 and finally did
