Some packages require kernel headers.
If you build from scratch, something sets CFLAGS to a good value.

If you come back the next day, reconfigure your system,
to include a new package, and recompile, many packages
will bomb out because they do not find the "asm-generic.h"

By adding this CFLAGS patch you can compile those packages.

Many packages have this already, many don't.
Can you explain when you have it and when you don't?
