Compilation can fail when libnfnetlink is not in a directory searched by default. Reason is the empty KERNELDIR variable which makes for a gcc command like: gcc -I. -I../include -I -Wall -I/usr/include/libnfnetlink-1.0.0+git28 -Wall -c libnetfilter_queue.c What one would expect is that gcc would search in the (non-existent) directory "-Wall" and just continue as usual, since -Wall is specified again. Instead, gcc versions before 4.6 attempt to search the (similarly non-existent) directory "-I/usr/[...]" and thus miss.
