[klibc] To build klibc against kernel 3.4.3

Anyway I've tried both, exported header or in source header, on two archs, arm and x86_64. It works in both ways on both archs.
But I think going via the exported header is more preferable, since the exported headers have to be built for other things!
I used to build using in source headers because old versions are documented in such a way. The first reaction to build error is to pick up the latest version and begin the built in the old way!

Thanks,
Thomas

your patch is wrong inded, as already pointed out.

Indeed that is the way to go, just look at the easy example on
the last line of `make help' in klibc.
One has just to run `make headers_install` on the linux src side.
