I also had the problem with the same configuration (Linux kernel 2.6.16, Xen 3.0.2-2, cluster-1.02.00 tarball). Here is how I solved it: 1) Install the required packages. 2) Apply the patch that is listed at http://www.redhat.com/archives/cluster-devel/2006-June/msg00162.html. This will solve the problem 'error: dereferencing pointer to incomplete type' (as stated in http://lists.xensource.com/archives/html/xen-users/2006-07/msg00730.html). 3) Some further error occured, stating that some header files could not be found. You can fix it on your own when you just change the '#include' statement (I cannot tell you exactly now where to fix it, because I cannot access that computer, see the error message from the compiler). I remember that a 'magma.h' and another file were included in the wrong way (the given path was wrong). After I changed the '#include' statement in the source it compiled fine. As far as I remember that was all what was needed to let me compile the cluster-1.02.00.
