I don't know what /usr/include/xattr/ is but /usr/include/linux/ is
where the kernel-headers are supposed to end up.  I'm guessing
/usr/include/xattr/ is the glibc function definitions?  (my glibc
function definitions for xattrs are in /usr/include/sys/xattr.h)

I sent a patch to export them all.  I didn't cc stable since it
clearly change more than it needs to, but we really should send
something to stable....
