hasan:
if you have recently installed glibc, you may find this to be
related to differing header sizes between libc format 5 and
libc format 6.
an easy way to test this is to edit the kernel makefile to
pick up header definitions from /usr/include, ie. -I/usr/include,
before following default cpp path(/usr/local/include). if your
kernel compile succeeds, you may be in the position of sorting
out what's in /usr/include vs. /usr/local/include as i am doing now.
