Can you change that line to "fnstsw %ax" and running the compile again?

I committed a change to the FreeBSD and Darwin configuration files
which switch to using -iquote when the compiler is not GCC 2 or 3.  I
can make a change to the Linux configuration file as well.  However, I
do not understand how this problem relates to the kernel header files.
 Is the underlying problem that the wrong header file is being found
when an -iquote is not used?
