Can't build external module against 2.6.0-test6 kernel

I'm trying to build a driver external to the kernel. I'm running 2.6.0-test6
kernel.
It appears to me (I'm probably wrong) that there is a kernel include file issue.

gcc -c rtom.c -D__KERNEL__ -DMODULE -DDEBUG -DDEBUG_LEVEL=6
-I/lib/modules/2.6.0-test6/build/include -I../include/linux/sys
-I../include/linux -I../include -O -o rtom

.

harley:/usr/src/linux-2.6.0-test6 # find ./ -name mach_mpspec.h

./include/asm-i386/mach-default/mach_mpspec.h
./include/asm-i386/mach-es7000/mach_mpspec.h
./include/asm-i386/mach-generic/mach_mpspec.h
./include/asm-i386/mach-summit/mach_mpspec.h
./include/asm-i386/mach-numaq/mach_mpspec.h
./include/asm-i386/mach-bigsmp/mach_mpspec.h



In the 'include/asm/mpspec.h' file:
#ifndef __ASM_MPSPEC_H
#define __ASM_MPSPEC_H

#include <linux/cpumask.h>
#include <asm/mpspec_def.h>
#include <mach_mpspec.h> <-----------------------------------------------

extern int mp_bus_id_to_type [MAX_MP_BUSSES];

It seems like something is amiss here. Isn't the include statment incorrect
above?

Thanks
Mark
