Umm... when you are compiling a kernel module, it DEFINITELY needs to be
compiled with the kernel headers
of the kernel it will run under. Kernel modules have no knowledge of glibc
and are completely unaffected
by it. RHL7 at least lets you have a separate /usr/src/linux so that, if
done right, products like
VMware can find the headers of the running kernel.....
