I have the impression that what makes "make" to exit is not the inexistant
header file ("floatingpoint.h") which OTOH, I cannot find it available
anywhere in debian repositories for linux kernels, but the last warning
(xbindkeys.c:498:) but any developer will tell, I'm a plain user :-)

Interesting... let's see:
http://www2.its.strath.ac.uk/courses/c/subsection3_13_3.html#SECTION00013300000000000000
So brackets for searching the file on the usual library path and quotes
for local header files :-)
