Sigh... Configurations with /usr/include/{linux,asm} being symlinks are BROKEN. Please, look through the archives - it had been discussed a lot of times. Userland has no business using kernel headers directly and that's precisely what had bitten you - setup where /usr/include/asm comes not from libc but from the (currently being built) kernel.
