The right way to fix the problem will involve a bit of work, but will fix
for gcc and kgcc alike. /usr/include/{asm,linux,scsi} are not linked to
/usr/src/linux/include/{asm,linux,scsi} but instead are coming from
elsewhere. I need to get more details to figure out exactly why this is
happening, but my suspicion is that if you change CC to
"gcc -I/usr/src/linux-$LINUX_VERS/include" and build kdump, it will work.
When I have more details, I will share.
