Yes, right.

The problem is, that "makelinks" replaces the saa7146 driver with the 
saa7146 from CVS, whereas the drivers mentioned above are not replaced. 
I recently changed the internal interface of some of the saa7146 
functions, so the in-kernel saa7146 users won't compile anymore.

If you don't need these drivers, simply disable them.
