If you haven't already, start here:
http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/libc6-dev
and download the linux-libc-dev and libc6-dev packages.
They can be co-installed with:
$ sudo dpkg -i lib*.deb

Separately, I'll send you the martian update Antonio refers to, with
patches applied.

scanModem maintainer

This is likely your problem:
 For martian_modem, additional required packages are libc6-dev (and
for Debian/Ubuntu,  linux-libc-dev)
