snort inline on Fedora

Hi all, 

Having some issues packaging up snort (and its many different builds). 

Snort with in-line functionality does not build at all. I get the errors
that are reported (but un-actioned and reported on FC3) in bugzilla:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=168045 and also in
the in-line FAQ: http://snort-inline.sourceforge.net/FAQ.html

The suggestion is to point to a set of "real" kernel includes instead of
RH's glibc-kernheaders package.

However, whilst this may work for a one of build, its not elegant for a
mass deployment of snort installs via rpm. 

Has anyone got some suggestions on what should be done about this or how
to work around it (from a packaging standpoint) ?

Thanks in advance. 

Michael
