It does actually build, but it is now put into a completely different directory, /lib/modules/2.6.22.1/kernel/drivers/hid/usbhid, and requires /lib/modules/2.6.22.1/kernel/drivers/input/ff-memless.ko to be installed before it can be. None of this is documented and it makes upgrading extremely difficult, expecially when a keyboard won't work anymore. BYW, it did fix the problem with the old driver.
