Hi,
I know of this problem. The issue is, that xiafs a extfs awe not in 2.1/2.2
series of kernel. The upstream author is prepairing patches to not
build support for these filesystems on newer kernels.

But, it assumes, that kernel-headres-2.0.35 are installed. It could be
-2.0.36 of whatever. So it's why I CC this to -devel.
FIX1: see above
FIX2: put xiafs.h a extfs.h into lde a include them
FIX3: don't build support xiafs and extfs on kernels >=2.1
      (this will be in next upstream version)
maybe others.
So what is the right solution? Or could there be a symlink
in /usr/src like kernel-2.0 -> kernel-2.0.36?
