+After installing GNU libc, you may need to remove or rename

+@file{include/asm-$@var{ARCHITECTURE}} taken from the Linux source

+@var{ARCHITECTURE} will be the machine architecture for which the

+to do this if you did not specify an alternate kernel header source

 Note that @file{/usr/include/net} and @file{/usr/include/scsi} should
 @strong{not} be symlinks into the kernel sources.  GNU libc provides its
