my kernel headers are hosed!

[Net Llama!]

Seems that I missed the memo long ago that ordered everyone to stop 
symlinking /usr/include/asm & /usr/include/linux into /usr/src/linux. 
So, i've continued to do that and now have discovered that its a bad 
thing because /usr/include/asm & /usr/include/linux should contain the 
headers used to build my current glibc, rather than the current kernel.

My current glibc(-2.3.2) was built under kernel 2.4.22, so I thought 
that I could fix this mess with the following:
cd /usr/src/linux-2.4.22
make mrproper
make include/linux/version.h
make symlinks
cp -HR include/asm /usr/include
cp -R include/asm-generic /usr/include
cp -R include/linux /usr/include
touch /usr/include/linux/autoconf.h

Unfortunately, that hasn't helped at all.  Trying to buld anything that 
relies on the kernel headers is bombing out with an assortment of bad 
errors like:

In file included from /usr/include/sys/wait.h:30,
                  from xsystem.c:21:
/usr/include/signal.h:27: error: conflicting types for `sigset_t'
/usr/include/sys/select.h:38: error: previous declaration of `sigset_t'
xsystem.c: In function `xsystem':
xsystem.c:45: error: `errno' undeclared (first use in this function)
xsystem.c:45: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
xsystem.c:45: error: for each function it appears in.)
make[1]: *** [xsystem.o] Error 1


Surely there must be a way to fix this mess.  Anyone?
