Currently INSTALL says:

  o Configure will seemingly fail to find xpm.h and forms.h on linux
    if the kernel headers are not available. Two cases are possible: 

      - you have not installed the kernel sources. The you should
        install them or at least the kernel-headers package (or
        whatever it is called in your distribution).

      - you have the sources, but you did a 'make mrproper' in the
        kernel directory (this  this removes some symbolic links that
        are needed for compilation). A 'make symlinks' in linux kernel
        sources fixes that. 


What more can we do??
