no it only appears in 3.2.0 and 2.6 kernels - and seems to be related to
the recent drm changes in conftest.h
this is a regression from previous releases that were compatible to all
ancient kernels

the nvidia-kernel-source package is more suited for bulk compile tests -
throw it into a chroot with any nuber of kernel headers and run
/usr/share/doc/nvidia-kernel-source/build-module-packages.sh

can you take a look at this, I'm busy with nvidia-alternatives and
glx-diversions and friends ...
