THis is not the fault of Fedora 9 - we run this, too, on some systems, and it works fine here. To me it seems a sif you missed to install a few critical packages on your system.
I agree with you, even though is not easy to find what is missing.
... HOSTCC scripts/mod/sumversion.o scripts/mod/sumversion.c: In function "get_src_version": scripts/mod/sumversion.c:384: error: "PATH_MAX" undeclared (first use in this function)
This probably means that the "kernel-headers" package is missing. Try: "yum -y install kernel-headers" (running as root).
I have checked what you say but, the answer is: "package kernel-headers-2.6.25.11-97.fc9.i386 is already installed on this system"
On my debian based system the kernel header package is for developing kernel modules not for the userspace stuff. It's in another package.
dpkg -S /usr/include/linux/limits.h linux-libc-dev: /usr/include/linux/limits.h
But redhat may be different.
Could the problem be related to some path not correctly declared?
Many Thanks
