I think this is one of the files that was moved in the source tree from kernel 
2.2 to 2.4.  To quote the readme file from the 3c90x driver:

*** Please execute the following commands as user 'root':
cp /boot/vmlinuz_24.version.h /usr/src/linux-2.4.0.SuSE/include/linux/
version.h
cp /boot/vmlinuz_24.autoconf.h /usr/src/linux-2.4.0.SuSE/include/linux/
autoconf.h
