I'm not sure if using the mailinglist here for reporting problems is
acceptable nor not. If it is not, please let me know. ( I have a
preference for it over a private email for transparency reasons, and
it makes it easier to refer other people to the issue without having
to repeat myself ).

I'm not entirely sure if this is Linux-DVB's fault or something I've
done, I am open to either, but I am fully expecting it to be something
I've done. :)

Either way, here is the attached compilation failure log, and if
somebody can direct me to the direction I need to find resolution of
this fault that would be greatly appreciated.

I'm admittedly not very C savvy, and I'm somewhat suspicious of it
mixing and matching /usr/src/linux and /usr/include/, though I expect
it might be necessary for what you're doing, which might require me to
make additional preparation/sanity check steps to ensure this works. (
I am half-assed packaging it for Gentoo, but not in an official
capacity  )

Any additional information required will be provided on request.
