speakup changes in cvs

Actually, I just did a checkout this morning before knowing about your
changes and ran into a problem while patching the kernel source.  I am
using a fresh 2.4.5 kernel tree and running checkout for the first time on
this newly formatted machine.  I got the following Makefile.rej in
/usr/src/linux/drivers/char:
***************
*** 232,234 ****

  qtronixmap.c: qtronixmap.map
  	set -e ; loadkeys --mktable $< | sed -e 's/^static *//' > $@
--- 244,247 ----

  qtronixmap.c: qtronixmap.map
  	set -e ; loadkeys --mktable $< | sed -e 's/^static *//' > $@
+

Can I go along with this error condition or do I need to upgrade the
kernel to 2.4.9 to get around this?
