ax25-tools and Kernel 2.6

Hey all!

Running into some difficulty compiling the ax25-tools package on my computer at home. I'll start off with some stats on my system:

P-II 266 laptop system
Self-Compiled distribution (Linux from Scratch)
Kernel 2.6.8.1-ck7
GCC 3.4.2
Glibc CVS Checkout from 08/28
Binutils 2.15.91.0.2
Linux-libc-headers 2.6.8.1

The problem is in compiling the ax25-tools - getting an error regarding soundmodem.h not found - this is of course because the soundmodem driver being removed from the kernel itself, and becoming the user-space application. I did succeed in compiling the software by taking the old soundmodem.h from a 2.4.x kernel distribution, and placing it into /usr/include/linux, and this worked for a period of time. However, I started encountering kernel panics every time I used kissattach to set up my ax0 interface.

Do any of you out there have any suggestions on how I could remove the references to the old soundmodem abi's from the ax25-tools package?
