you need to apply a patch to the module to get it to compile against 2.6.18
the patch is available in svn

trunk/kernel-patches/2.6.18/postapply/module/undo_2.6.20_mnt_namespace.patch

or you can down load that latest snapshot and get it from there.  I
wouldn't use the module supplied in the snapshot because a few important
patches have been made in svn since that snapshot was made.
