Seeing how the kernel headers are installed after gcc pass1 and binutils pass1 in ch5, then that is a problem since /tools/include is populated. If you install the kernel headers right at the beginning, then it wouldn't be a problem as /tools/include wouldn't exist at that time. Final system kernel headers install wouldn't be a problem as /usr/ include isn't populated.
