And the cool thing is, it doesn't matter that they shipped an incompatible, broken compiler, because since /usr/include/asm and /linux are includes for the kernel that glibc is built against and not the current kernel, you can't compile modules that are compatible with your current kernel anyways! On a serious note, I don't suppose anyone knows
Actually, the kernel team (linus in particular) has been screaming bloody murder that the distro's do this for at least two years now. If you're compiling user space, you're running against user space (glibc) so that's what you care about being compatible with, not the kernel. If you're compiling kernel mods, you should be compiling with -I/usr/src/linux-2.4/ (or wherever you keep your kernel source). -- Frank Sweetser rasmusin at wpi.edu, fs at suave.net | $ x 15 Full-time WPI Network Tech, Part time Linux/Perl guy | There are still some other things to do, so don't think if I didn't fix your favorite bug that your bug report is in the bit bucket.
