I believe that the correct solution is to install the necessary kernel
headers into /usr/include/linux/ prior to building cluster.  This
usually means doing something like this:
  cd /usr/src/linux
  make headers_install
  cp usr/include/linux/dlm* /usr/include/linux/
  cp usr/include/linux/gfs* /usr/include/linux/
  cp usr/include/linux/lock_dlm_plock.h /usr/include/linux/
  cp usr/include/linux/lm_interface.h /usr/include/linux/
  (that's all I can think of at the moment)
