The linux/config.h has an #include_next to include the kernel's 
<linux/config.h>, but this was removed in 2.6.19.

There have been many kernel changes since comedi-0.7.73 was released, so 
you'll have better luck with the CVS version.  You'll also need to use 
the '--disable-pcmcia' configure option.
