pci.c needed a fix for etch..
I added the includes for utsrelease.h as they were needed for the
declaration of UTS_RELEASE in debian etch...
as the acx tarball downloaded into debian etch:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

~~~~~~~~~~~
after researching and discovering these declarations had been put into
separate includes.h for etch,
I entered pci.c and in the includes header added the line
#include <linux/utsrelease.h>
and it compiled beautifully.
I haven't touched source code for over 12 years.
Totally made my day.
