Just as a thought, make sure that /usr/include/linux and /usr/include/asm
are symlinks to /usr/src/linux/include/linux and
/usr/src/linux/include/asm

(or /usr/src/your-linux-directory/include/linux|asm)

It's possible it decided to install set A of headers and you're compiling
kernel B and they don't line up :o
