If it makes a difference to anything you're trying to compile, then that program is very likely buggy. Do not include <linux/*.h> directly; it's as simple as that. > libc6-dev must depend upon a _proven_, _stable_and _trustable_ kernel > branch; 2.6 is not one of those, while 2.4 definitely is. You still can't do NPTL with 2.4 headers, though. Cheers, -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
