No, it should be there now. On my system --
$ locate modversions.h
/usr/src/kernel-headers-2.4.17-k7/include/config/modversions.h
/usr/src/kernel-headers-2.4.17-k7/include/linux/modversions.h
/usr/src/kernel-headers-2.4.17/include/linux/modversions.h
/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.17/include/config/modversions.h
/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.17/include/linux/modversions.h
/usr/src/kernel-source-2.4.18/include/config/modversions.h

ide-scsi and ide-cdrom are not compatable. You can use both within
limitations, but mixing on the same interface does not seem to work well
(for me anyhow). Both cdroms should work as ide-scsi with no problem.
On my system from /etc/fstab
/dev/scd0 /cd/0 auto ro,user,noauto 0 0
/dev/scd1 /cd/1 auto ro,user,noauto 0 0
from /etc/lilo.conf
append="hdc=ide-scsi hdd=ide-scsi hdg=ide-tape"
For me /dev/scd0 (/dev/hdc) is my CDRW device and /dev/scd1 (/dev/hdd) is a
DVD/CD player. Cdrecord finds the CDRW as scsibus0: 0,0,0. I believe this
can also be refered to as /dev/sg0. Actual devices will very depending on
other scsi devices (if any) on your system.
