+The error messages have the form:

+This error occurs because your system defines LINUX_VERSION_CODE in
+the standard header file linux/version.h but does not give it a value.
+As a workaround, you can edit the file src/s/gnu-linux.h to add the

+Installation may fail, or the Emacs executable may not start

+as a `configure' argument (e.g. `--prefix'). The problem can also
