Usually you get compilation errors when you try to compile alsa with gcc version , different from what was used to compile your kernel. Standard RH7.3 kernel (an all updates) was compiled with gcc-2.96, while you may have upgraded gcc since then to 3.1/3.2. If so, install compat-gcc296 package from RH8.0 distribution and use CC=gcc296 option in alsa ./configure. Should help - helped me insimilar situation
