Well please tell me which one it is, kernel-patch-2.4.14-m68k or
kernel-headers-whatever. I noticed that kernel-headers is a virtual
package, it is provided by kernel-header-something. I guess each buildd
has their own kernel-header-something installed. Perhaps the q650
machine has an old version installed?

Anyway, ifenslave does not depend on kernel headers, unless you
(Michael) are saying that any program that uses symbolic names for
ioctl() numbers depends on kernel headers...
