That makes little difference, as (generally) packages that need the
kernel headers look in /usr/include/{linux,scsi,asm} and not
/usr/src/linux/include/{linux,scsi,asm-*}. Oh, yes I've tried linking
/usr/src/... into /usr/include/... (which IIRC is what you had to do in
ye olde days, though apparently that won't work with 2.6)

Which leads me onto the other post;

Yea, I didn't think they did (though it did take some testing etc. to
figure this out ). "A lot of conflicts, there are" (usually down to
redefinitions or undefined type usage... it's messy).
