This is more a problem of the fact that only the Alpha and i386 kernels are developed in the master tree; if a conscious effort was made to keep the arch include headers in sync with the development kernels for each port (which have constant locations) this wouldn't be a problem. Of course, this is further complicated because the kernels that aren't developed in the master tree don't have consistent release timetables, so they tend to skip master tree versions.
