If I correctly understand what you are trying to do, you installed the
2.6.24 kernel from "etch and 1/2" and now you are unable to compile the
mol kernel modules with the source from mol-source.

Unfortunately the "etch and 1/2" kernel does not support mol out of the
box. The problem you reported is already fixed in the newer version
of mol that will be included in the upcomming release (lenny).

I think the easiest way to fix your problem is to install the package
mol-source from lenny and to compile the kernel modules from there. You
can download this package from 
ftp://ftp.debian.org/debian/pool/main/m/mol/mol-source_0.9.72.1~dfsg-2_powerpc.deb
