Phil.
It's not a problem of your NCR SCSI Controller! I had the same problem a few days ago and it was discussed here some more days ago; but the solution is very simple:
Modify the drivers/scsi/53c7,8xx.c file in the following way:
Search for 'pcibios_strerror' (there is only one), replace 'pcibios_strerror(error)' with 'error' instead. Afterwards your compilation will work fine!

Okay, it's funfact time;
The Tekram DC390F is a PCI SCSI-UW Controller The Tekram DC390F uses the SymBios/NCR 3C5875 chipset
We're using 2.1.98 here. Tekram DC390 and NCR3C58xx drivers both ready, as well as hacked AHA152x.

Uhh.. HUH!? Now, I haven't had the opprotunity to work with the NCR drivers (yet), and already I'm getting scared. What exactly is going on here? Anybody? *whimper* I wanna use my new SCSI card! ;(
