...all this is the same for 2.4 and 2.6 Kernels, however the following
should be replaced with a single "make" command when compiling against 2.6
Kernels.

... dep's a deprecated make option for 2.6 Kernels.  Without a successful
"make" the following HostAP compile will probably fail.

...these could be caused by above errs.
