Glad to hear you got it working! Yeah, I added the second set of files to 
move later, when I figured out I hadn't enabled ipcomp.

Yeah, that makefile is a total hack - I'm really not a programmer, so I
just kludged something together to get it working. Thanks for the patch,
though - makes things easier until someone who knows what they are doing
with the build system can take a look at it.  :)

If you happen to be a programmer, and want to take a look at it, there is
still a problem with NAT Traversal compiling, because of some structural
changes in 2.6 (specifically, tp_pinfo has been removed). If you want to
try this out, just uncomment the line referring to NAT_TRAVERSAL in the
makefile.
