Cross compiling pppd 2.4.1 with ELDK 2.0

[Paul Ruhland]

Your output tells me the include paths in your eldk may be broken ( or
something went wrong during eldk install ).

If eldk path is '/opt/eldk', what do you have for the following:

  /opt/eldk/ppc_8xx/usr/include/linux
  /opt/eldk/ppc_8xx/usr/include/asm

They should be links like so:

  /opt/eldk/ppc_8xx/usr/include/linux --> ../src/linux/include/linux/
  /opt/eldk/ppc_8xx/usr/include/asm --> ../src/linux/include/asm/

Do the directories the links point to exist?

Optionally, and I've seen some say this shouldn't be done, I point those two
links to my target's kernel include paths.

  /opt/eldk/ppc_8xx/usr/include/linux -->
/home/me/project/src/linux/include/linux/
  /opt/eldk/ppc_8xx/usr/include/asm -->
/home/me/project/src/linux/include/asm/

I've never had a problem with this and its done like that on my host system as
well ( '/usr/include/linux' --> '/usr/src/linux/include/linux', etc ).
