Hmmm, while checking the kernel-headers (2.6.18 and 19) I've seen
that  linux/include/scsi/sg.h already will include linux/compiler.h

So my guess is, that the (HAVE_SCSI_SG_H) path is used and the glibc
headers have changed somehow. What's the glibc version on SuSE 10.2?
Please call /lib/libc.so.6

Anyway could you guys please try and add the compiler.h only to the 
HAVE_SCSI_SG_H path?

The other warning  about the resmgr could savely be ignored and it
seems, that SuSE wants to skip this beast...
