kvm-88 build error on CentOS 5.3 x86_64, kernel 2.6.18-164.2.1.el5.plus

[Jon .]

Hi all,

I am attempting to build kvm-88 on CentOS 5.3 and encounter the error
below while running make. Is the kernel included with CentOS too old?
Has any one been able to successfully build and run kvm-88 on CentOS
5.3?

Thanks!

If you're looking for kvm on centos you might as well try the included 
kvm in centos 5.4.
