No, it is impossible. It does NOT compile for you just like it doesnt compile for me unless you did what I did, which is copied file aic7xxx_seq.h from 1.3.95 distribution to /usr/src/linux/drivers/scsi.
Other alternatives are:
1. You are using modules and, therefore, its a totally "different Universe" of which I know nothing and cant comment
2. You used patch against previous version whereas I always download new linux-XXX.tar.gz file (its only a few megs... :) and I have this superstitous fear of using patches, the fresh kernel looks "nicer") and, therefore, you had the file left there from previous version.
3. Miracle happened and aic7xxx_seq.h got created by itself on your host (possible but highly unlikely IMHO)
Dear Linus, a simple thing I wanted to ask you... Can you please include aic7xxx_seq.h file next time the kernel is released? Thank you.
Lots of regards, Tigran.
PS. Btw, that thing I said about renaming something was not true - ok, I said it without even looking at it. I promise I did spent 2 minutes on it now before writing this :)
