I read this just the other day (don't recall where; prolly on
kt.linuxcare.com).  Making a symlink in /usr/include is BAD because
compiling apps against kernel headers different from the kernel headers
glibc was compiled against is BAD.  Making a symlink from
/usr/src/linux-version to /usr/src/linux is NOT bad; I have never done
this any other way.
