Are you sure that <sys/prctl.h> includes <asm/prctl.h>?

user@debian:/usr/include$ grep -rn '\bARCH_'
asm-generic/statfs.h:42:#ifndef ARCH_PACK_STATFS64
asm-generic/statfs.h:43:#define ARCH_PACK_STATFS64

user@debian:/usr/include$ grep -rn 'asm/prctl.h'
user@debian:/usr/include$

At least on my system, no header seems to be including <asm/prctl.h>.

Thanks,

Alex
