This program was building before.  Why was <asm/param.h> dependency
added?  Does it now rely on Linux-specific functionality, or is it
optional?

If this package is now Linux-specific, we have no choice.  However, if
it's just an oversight, it's probably trivial to fix it.

Have a look at the rest of the file.  Which code in it depends on that
header?  Does something break if you remove it?  Is this code
conditionalized (e.g. #ifdef __linux__)?

Also, I suggest you run "git blame" to find the commit that introduced
this regression, and see what other changes it made to the code.
