Of course it doesn't explain compiler errors, but have you read tulip.txt
in the kernel documentation dir (Documentation/networking):
------------------------------------------------------------
The Tulip driver is developed by Donald Becker and changed by
Takashi Manabe. This driver is designed to work with PCI Ethernet
cards which use the DECchip DC21x4x family. This driver hopefully
works with all of 1.2.x and 1.3.x kernels, but I tested only
with 1.2.13, 1.3.39, 1.3.49, 1.3.52, 1.3.57 and later.
Hopefully, the de4x5.c driver will support all cards supported
by the tulip.c driver. However, the SMC's 9332dst card and some
cards do not work with the de4x5.c driver. So, if your card is
not a 9332dst, please try the de4x5.c driver first.
-------------------------------------------------------------
My copy of the 2.2.18 kernel source also has an alternate source file for
tulip: '/usr/src/linux/drivers/net/old_tulip.c'
To possibly avoid more anguish, you might want to check the ether chip on
the card to see if the driver in question indeed applies to your card.
