Albert, --enable-kernel-module indicates whether fuse.ko should be build which would be "insmod"ed into the kernel. It is need if you want to take advantage of certain performance features that are there in fuse-glfs. Also you will have to build fuse.ko yourself and use it in case you want to NFS export the glusterfs mounted directory. It looks like there is some incompatibility with your kernel version because of which compilation is failing. What kernel are you running?
