My steps:

$ uname -srvm
Linux 4.9.0-5-amd64 #1 SMP Debian 4.9.65-3+deb9u2 (2018-01-04) x86_64

0. Install build/compiler tools:
sudo apt-get install build-essential linux-headers-amd64

1. Download latest stable version (3.4.0.2) from:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/e1000/files/e1000e%20stable/

2. Unpack:
tar zxf e1000e-*.tar.gz

3. Compile and install:
cd e1000e-*/src/
sudo make install

cc1: error: code model kernel does not support PIC mode
/bin/sh: 1: [: -ge: unexpected operator
Makefile:199: *** *** Aborting the build. *** This driver is not
supported on kernel versions older than 2.4.0.  Alto.

Hello,
I believe you have a two options: update your gcc compiler to 4.8 or try 
ad flag -fno-pie to your Makefile.
Please, refer to follow thread regard your question on source forge: 
https://sourceforge.net/p/e1000/bugs/542/
Also, I advice send your question to SourceForge mailing list: 
e1000-devel at lists.sourceforge.net.

$ gcc --version
gcc (Debian 6.3.0-18) 6.3.0 20170516

I'm not experienced with this.
How to flag -fno-pie to the "Makefile" ?

In the meanwhile, I'm doing the workaround by schnick:
Find in Makefile ( e1000e/src/Makefile , Line ~152) =>
EXTRA_CFLAGS += $(CFLAGS_EXTRA)
Insert a new line after that => EXTRA_CFLAGS += -fno-pie
