Thank you for your quick response.

I downloaded the Makefile and etc/config.c
and retried compiling lm_sensors 2.7.0 using gcc 3.3.

Well, the compilation produced lots of warnings
about system headers (now used CC options include -Wall), but
the compilation succeeded!

I looked at the difference in Makefile.
Obviously the use of -nostdinc on the gcc command line,
and specifying the necessary header directories in correct/desired 
order explicitly using -I helped.
(Actually I played with -nostdinc when I encountered the problem, 
but I didn't know the "-print-search-dirs" directive to GCC. So
I could not figure out where GCC would be searching for the
standard headers in GCC's default scheme. There I gave up, 
and decided to use the different directory for i2c headers in
my suggested patch.)

Thank you again for your great piece of software!

Happy Hacking

PS: maybe your entry dated May 31st might want to mention
gcc 3.3 (or gcc 3.x) since I obviously missed 
this entry when I checked your web page yesterday...
