I had the exact same type of problem in FC4T2, I googled it and found it to 
be pretty common. The solution is to replace your version of i2c.h with a 
modified one that has proper function defs. Once I replaced it, I was able 
to compile my new kernels. Give me some time and I will look for it again.
