Re: Debian backend fixes and other issues

[Antony J Mee <A J Mee ncl ac uk>]

Hi Tom,

I'm not running Debian (rather Gentoo, it's illegitimate child) but I 
have the same issue and
adding "#define HEADERS_KERNEL" seems to fix this.

I'd love to say I understand why this works, or tell you where I got 
this information but
sadly I know neither! :-)  Perhaps it was that Gentopia guys that found 
this.

More specifically:
