 Description   

When cross building against 2.6.18 kernel, I always got following errors. It is because after commit 76bf16d1, HAVE_PROCFS_USERS and HAVE_PROCFS_DELETED can both be true on old kernels with backported code. As the old jira entry (LU-1484) is closed, open a new one to fix this.

Got the same issue/error when manually building latest Lustre 1.8 sources (1.8.8.60) from latest 2.6.18 Kernel sources (2.6.18-348.el5.src), but with "lustre/include/lprocfs_status.h" include file and same pre-processor statement :
567 #ifdef HAVE_PROCFS_USERS
568 #error proc_dir_entry->deleted is conflicted with proc_dir_entry->pde_users
569 #endif
Same fix (remove statement's 3 lines!) works just fine ...

Thank's for the info/link Bobijam, I am sorry but I found this late yesterday evening and missed more time to find if it was already addressed ...
