kernel compile error in bootsplash.c

["J. B." <ierland@mail.be>]

I try to compile a 2.6.10 kernel but it stops with an error
in bootsplash.c. I have everything set in my .config file in /usr/src/linux for bootsplash support. 

Anybody an idea. Where should i start to look? I am a newbie in kernel world
