http://www.tigen.org/kevin.kofler/pcprogs/qc-usb-0.6.3-kernel-2.6.16.diff 
 
I also have a patched version of Ignacio Vazquez-Abrams's SRPM if you prefer: 
http://www.tigen.org/kevin.kofler/pcprogs/kernel-module-qc-usb-0.6.3-0.iva.2.kk.src.rpm 
(This needs some cleanups, such as using the patch above instead of prepatching 
the source tarball, and using the original tarball and separate patches instead 
of adding the patches to the tarball like Ignacio did, and it also uses the old 
kernel module scheme, but it works.)
