Replacing my patch with this one yields:

drivers/built-in.o: In function `ne_block_output':
/local/linsrc/linux-2.6.26-rc5-mm2/drivers/net/ne2.c:751: undefined reference to `NS8390_init'
drivers/built-in.o: In function `ne2_probe1':
/local/linsrc/linux-2.6.26-rc5-mm2/drivers/net/ne2.c:502: undefined reference to `NS8390_init'
make[1]: *** [.tmp_vmlinux1] Error 1

for ne2 driver built into kernel image.
