A note (unrelated to the compile problems caused by 2.6), this copying
of kernel headers to /usr/include/linux and /usr/include/asm[-generic]
should really happen as soon as possible. The symlinks are a historic
practice apparently from the libc4 days. You can find lots of flamewars
about this if you google a bit, but Linus says those should always be
the headers glibc was compiled against, lfs and debian do this already,
don't know about other distros.
