Yes. I would expect that building in /usr/src would use the headers
from /usr/src/include. You could try installing the latest headers
into /usr/include before starting your build, but that's a hack and
not guarranteed to work.
I think what has happened is that one or more of the Makefiles in the
src tree hasn't been updated properly, possibly because cvsup(1)
doesn't think it owns the file. Try doing what the cvsup FAQ says,
and running an update with the 'list=cvs:RELENG_4' added to the supfile.
With any luck you should see updates to files matching '*.mk' and
'Makefile*', and then the build will succeed.
Cheers,
Matthew
