Linux 2.6.16.18 and submount

After switching to 2.6 I tried to install submount, but the compilation ot the subfs module gives the following error:

bash-3.1$ make
make -C /lib/modules/2.6.16.18/build SUBDIRS=/home/freeman/submount-0.9/submount-0.9/subfs-0.9 modules
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.16.18'

make[1]: Leaving directory `/usr/src/linux-2.6.16.18'
make: *** [default] Error 2

Any ideas would be highly appreciated.
Thanks.

So I guess it is possible that you'll experience some difficulties...

For more installation details, look here on how to install it "manually":

I have installed it manually from source following the instructions in the INSTALL file, and they are exactly the same as in the Gentoo wiki. Did the same when I was still using 2.4 and it worked flawlessly. There's gotta be a way for it to work in newer 2.6 kernels as SuSE Linux 10.1 for example comes with submount(modified in some way i guess).

P.S.
btw thank you for your time, I really appreciate it.
