John, thanks for the hint about dynamic/static load. The .c file just
contained
 #ifndef MODULE
 #  define MODULE
 #endif
which was right for SuSE PC-Linux where I insmod the driver, but I have to
leave it out on the µBlaze to get statical loading of the driver. Now it
works well! :-) 
BTW, I moved the stuff to directory uclinux_dist/linux-2.4.x/drivers/misc.

Maybe one can the content of my first email as HowToAddANewDriver.txt to the
uclinux doc dir. It would save the people the hours I spent finding out what
is to do.

Cheers
F@lk
