I would guess that this holds true in general, but it really shouldn't be applicable to cross-compiling a Linux kernel under OS X (or Darwin). Because the kernel does not rely on an external C library, it really shouldn't be looking in /usr/include for its header files. A properly built cross-compiler will look in its own private header directories for any .h files needed, but most of the ones required by the kernel are in its own include/ and include/asm directories. > Also I have come across a > few programs were to get them to compile I had to "hard wire" the > #include that made the call to the *.h file.

Usually, if a compiler can't find an include file, something went wrong during configuration. -- - Charles Lepple -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
