That's a known problem, as others have pointed out. It is also documented at nvidia's README, section "Compiling the NVIDIA kernel module gives this error:" http://us.download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x86/275.09.07/README/commonproblems.html > Why on Earth is the squeeze kernel image not built with the version > squeeze version of gcc? http://packages.debian.org/squeeze/gcc Dunno, but maybe that's one of the reasons there are many versions available for gcc in the repos.
