It seems the tun.c is missing. For the 2.6 trees it should be a symlink
to $(KERNEL_SOURCE)/drivers/net/tun.c

You should check

a) whether the obj-ppc/build/src/netdriver/tun.c file exists and is a
symlink
b) if it is one, where it points to and whether the destination exists.
It should point into the linux source tree for 2.6 kernels.

What you can also try is disabling the TUN build configuration option.
As far as I have checked it will only built the tun kernel module that
you can get from the kernel sources as well.
