The advice already given about this bug refers to either including or
excluding all "unclean" packages when compiling the kernel. Should you
wish to exclude just the single package DRM_GAMMA (the subject of this
bug report) then one can use either of these two methods.
1. Assuming the kernel source is in /usr/src/kernel-source-2.6.9, run
"make menuconfig" in that directory and blank out the box next to the
drm_gamma item under the menu item
Device drivers / Character devices / Direct rendering manager
2. If this menu item doesn't appear (and it didn't for me!) then you can
edit the .config file in the /usr/src/kernel-source-2.6.9 directory
directly and change the line
CONFIG_DRM_GAMMA=m
to be
# CONFIG_DRM_GAMMA is not set
and the kernel compile will now exclude the broken package.

My sincere thanks to Martin Krafft for guiding me through this.
