Hello Christos,

Thank you for your help first. I didn't write down which header file made me in
trouble, I can tell you the steps for the compilation (up to the problem come
out).

1. (cd /usr/src/etc; make DESTDIR=/ distrib-dirs
2. (cd /usr/rc/usr.sbin/config; make && make install && make cleandir)
3. (cd /usr/src/gnu/usr.bin/gas ; make && make install && make cleandir)
4. (cd /sys/arch/i386/conf ; config KERNEL)
5. (cd /sys/arch/i386/compile/KERNEL ; make depend && make)

The error appeared when make depend proceed.

Cheers.
