I got some error while using kernel 2.6.8.3 to compile XFree86 4.3.0.1, and
I got the same problem as
http://www.mail-archive.com/xfree86@xxxxxxxxxxx/msg08116.html
But what make me confused is in lnx_io.c there are already some macros to
prevent such things happen, like
#include <linux/kd.h>
#include <linux/version.h>
#if defined(LINUX_VERSION_CODE) && defined(KERNEL_VERSION)
# if LINUX_VERSION_CODE >= KERNEL_VERSION(2,5,42)
# define rate period
# endif
#endif
Since I am afraid of where the error comes from may be the include path, I
also add "/usr/include" where LINUX_VERSION_CODE and KERNEL_VERSION locate
in Imakefile as you can see it seems take effect from the gcc compile
options below, but I am still stuck at the same place.
I know if I rudely change the name of the parameter to meet the kernel's
requirement, the error will vanish. But I really think it may not be the
proper way to compile XFree86.
If anyone has the same experience before or I omit setting something
correctly, please let me know.

The 4.3.0.1 version of lnx_io.c does not, in fact, #include <linux/version.h>
So, either you are mistaken in asserting otherwise, or you got the 4.3.0.1
sources from somewhere other than xfree86.org.
In the first case, you'll need to make the change found at
http://cvsweb.xfree86.org/cvsweb/xc/programs/Xserver/hw/xfree86/os-support/linux/lnx_io.c.diff?r1=3.24&r2=3.25
