Ah, I'd tend to stray away from that statement. The only code that
should be
touching kernel headers at all is code that needs to have structs that
aren't part
of glibc (IE obscure utilities designed to interact with specific
kernel-side stuff),
in which case it is the onus of the programmer of that utility to make
sure that
it can work with the kernel headers not maching glibc.
Fornatly, we have come rather close to that ideal. I have my
/usr/include/{asm,linux}
symlinked to the kernel source, and haven't had any problems (that I've
been able
to attribute to that, anyway.
