That tarball matches the one that I downloaded from a Debian mirror:

$ ll reiser*
-rw-rw-r-- 1 rdunlap rdunlap 406895 Nov 30 03:54 reiserfsprogs-3.6.19.tar.gz
-rw-rw-r-- 1 rdunlap rdunlap 406895 Oct 15  2004 reiserfsprogs_3.6.19.orig.tar.gz
$ cmp reiser*
$

and hence contains the same #include line.

The problem is more likely to be that this distro does not ship
<asm/unaligned.h> ... so I copied /usr/include/asm-generic/unaligned.h
from another system to /usr/include/asm/unaligned.h and built
reiserfsprogs successfully.

I _guess_ that the problem is that unaligned.h is not one of the
header files that is exported by the kernel's recent headers_install
script(s).  Or just that some $distro(s) forgot to ship unaligned.h
in /usr/include.  Anyway, I have it building now.

Thanks for your help.
