it's a problem in that apparently snort wants to use kernel internal
headers.... which is wrong on so many levels it's not funny.
That or snort "forgets" to include dependent headers... if you include
kernel headers (even derived cleaned up ones like in glibc-kernheaders)
you need to know what you're doing...
