D'oh! I kept trying to patch catalyst!
I realized my error and applied the patch, which works perfectly. Please mark as solved.
To mark threads as solved, just edit your first post and the title will be editable from there.

This is a kernel patch, you need to put a line to apply it on the PKGBUILD of kernel and rebuild it.
Take the PKGBUILD (and the associate files) from abs, edit the PKGBUILD and add something like this
patch -p1 -i $startdir/src/ati-catalyst-2.6.26.patch || return 1
(Of course you need to add a line for the md5sum, for source and save the patch in the PKGBUILD folder)

I know it's a pretty ridiculous-looking patch, with a ton of changes that aren't really changes...
Haha that's an understatement! I just glanced through the first 3 pages and I only saw ONE actual modification:
-#include <linux/init.h>
+//#include <linux/init.h>

You'd apply this patch in the catalyst PKGBUILD just before building. Maybe give it a shot?

This appears without fail every other catalyst upgrade. The whole thing is that I don't want to have to rollback the kernel plus all of the upgrades I have riding on it. Can I change the catalyst packagebuilds (catalyst plus utils) to work with kernel 2.6.26? I tried editing the packagebuild and compiling, but it took a shit on my lap. Please point me in the right direction (already cleaned the shit off meself).
