Errors compiling bro-pub-0.8a32 on Linux 2.4.20-8

[Christopher Jay Manders]

Hi,

Just thought I would note that for several versions of Linux, the 
compile does not work out of the box. Not just kernel 2.4.20-8. But, 
this is the one I am going to do some testing on.

I will be doing my IDS testing on:
1 - FreeBSD 4.6.2
1 - OpenBSD 2.9
1 - Linux 2.4.20-8

Anyway, the configure goes ok on Linux, but the initial make gets the 
errors below. I hope they are useful to get the autoconf stuff setup 
right for the next release.

If you can offer where to fix this, I'd be happy. Otherwise, if I get a 
chance I'd figure that out and send the fix. At first glance it looks 
like the static use of the linux-includes does not scale past some 
certain Linux version.

HTH
