It is *vital* to make sure that there is a symlink named 'linux' in /usr/src
that points to your /usr/src/your-kernel-foo-bar/ because there are symlinks
in /usr/include that expect to use this to find the build-specific headers.
A couple notes:

You don't have to put your kernel in /usr/src, and you DON'T have to
symlink /usr/src/linux to it before you build.  The symlinks (on
broken RedHat derivatives) in /usr/include should point to the kernel
headers that your libc was built againt, otherwise you risk breaking
binary compatibility.
