won't build against current kernel

Still the current dapper thinkpad-source (5.8-4) won't build
against the current kernel headers (2.6.15-19-686).

Error message is like this:
...
/usr/src/modules/thinkpad/2.6/drivers/thinkpadpm.c:475: error: 'pm_active' undeclared (first use in this function)
...

The debian sid package (5.9-1) compiled cleanly.

I have the same problem. Following packages are installed:
linux-image-2.6.15-20-686 (2.6.15-20.30)
linux-headers-2.6.15-20-686 (2.6.15-20.30)
thinkpad-source (5.8-4)
Compiler version:
gcc version 4.0.3 (Ubuntu 4.0.3-1ubuntu4)
Running kernel:
Linux version 2.6.15-20-686 (buildd@vernadsky) (gcc version 4.0.3 (Ubuntu 4.0.3-1ubuntu3)) #1 SMP PREEMPT Tue Apr 4 18:37:00 UTC 2006

Module build via module-assistant fails.

The output of a manual 'make' inside '/usr/src/modules/thinkpad/2.6/drivers' is:

With package thinkpad-source (5.9-2) from debian sid its working.

A quick fix is to add the following include statement to thinkpadpm.c:
<linux/pm_legacy.h>

Let me attach my trivial patch

Fixed in Debian, version 5.9-1.
