When trying to compile the latest compat-wireless package on an Ubuntu 8.10
64bit system running linux kernel 2.6.27-12 I get the following error

I got this as well, fixed it by adding #include <asm/unaligned.h> to key.c
I have been running compat-wireless for months, so it's not a missing package
thing, I suspect it's an outdated headers thing. My system has 2.6.27 headers
right now.

Hmm, sorry about that. On my system (2.6.29.3-142.fc11.x86_64) no
change is needed to building compat-wireless.
Maybe it is partly with old kernel heades.

You have missed some important info here. - most likely you don't have
the kernel header package installed.

Those two are defined in
<kernel_source>/include/linux/unaligned/le_byteshift.h since about
2.6.26, I just checked.
make sure /lib/modules/<kernel_ver>/source/ points to some kernel
source tree (you probably need to install some package called
kernel-dev or linux-dev).

Hauke Mehrtens has fixed this, I applied his patches and pushed a new
tarball out.
FWIW just also pushed out a stable tarball (based on 2.6.30-rc6).
