To pick up this issue again (as it's biting me more and more...):

What precisely prevents us at the moment from removing the
-I<kernel-headers> from all userspace build steps, both Xenomai's own
libraries as well as external rt-applications?

Gilles explained to me that at least asm/atomic.h is used by certain
parts like UVM (or only UVM?), and that including this header directly
from /usr/include fails on Red Hat/Fedora boxes. Are there any further
problems? At least on my SuSE 10 everything still compiles fine
(including UVM) when I remove the kernel headers from XENO_USER_CFLAGS
in configure.in.
