I'm not a gcc expert...

This is from the Linksys (v5 pci)floppy: 

"gcc -DMODULE -D__KERNEL__ -I/usr/src/linux/net/inet 
          -Wall -Wstrict-prototypes -O6 -c tulip.c 
          '[ -f /usr/include/linux/modversions.h ] && echo 
          -DMODVERSIONS`"
drop the `-o tulip_cb.o`
Hopefully there is some kind of make command specified to get this
installed since you will only be creating the .c file. This looks like it 
was poorly translated into English and could account for the slip in 
syntax.
