I haven't had the time to look further into this. Azarah gave me a binary

Dan,

I believe you need a 2.4.17 pre-patch.  I'm using 2.4.17-pre5 on Debian
Woody and devfs-v1.3.20 compiled with no problems.  The change logs for
2.4.17-preX should indicate which one is required.

This is not correct; devfsd-1.3.20 compiles just fine with 2.4.16 headers.

Yes, well I'm currently using 2.4.14. If you say upgrading to 2.4.16 will 
resolve this, I don't minding doing it. Will that help?

Works fine with 2.4.14 as well ...  Maybe a problem with 2.4.10 ?  Not
sure as to which Dan uses.
