ok, that is fine with me.  i just needed this thing to run lenny,
because i'm using it to build debian packages that must work on lenny
hosts.

what comes to squeeze and its 2.6.30 kernel, there should not be any
problems to include atl1c module in that kernel, because is can be build
by from source files provided by the vendor.
