I updated my cvs copy on Oct 30.

In case this helps, here's the build process I used:

1. Started with stock kernel 2.6.10-rc1 (no patches), configured with 
V4L, BT848, DVB_CORE, SP887X, DVB_BT8XX and MT352 as modules, built and 
installed.

2. Updated dvb-kernel source tree from CVS on Oct. 30th, 5PM AEST.

3. Built dvb-kernel with make BTTV=1. Here I got some compile errors, I 
had to disable a module in the Makefile to get it to finish (I forget 
which one).

4. Replaced kernel DVB modules with new ones:

        rm -rf /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/drivers/media/dvb/*
        mkdir /lib/modules/`uname -r`/dvb
        cd dvb-kernel/build-2.6
        cp *.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/dvb
        depmod -a

5. Load modules:

        modprobe v4l1-compat
        modprobe bttv
        modprobe dst
        modprobe dvb-bt8xx
        modprobe mt352

HTH, Itai
