Chuck! Alsa loves to not clean up it's source tree. It's very dependent on which kernel version you are running. That's ok accept when moving from bla.bla.bla. of the kernel to bla.bla.bla++, it may or may not need to rebuild some of the object files. It doesn't appear to be smart enough to know that some of them aren't cool and have to be rebuilt. I would imagine that a make clean would make this work ok but it's not the first time that I have seen it get squirly. I have not played with the make mrproper function for alsa. This may be the answer. However when in doubt just untar the tarball again and see what happens.
