I wondered about that myself.  The thing is, there is no reference to
KERNELCFLAGS anywhere in the source tree.  I tried looking with a "grep -r
KERNELCFLAGS *" in the fuse-2.4.2 directory.  Everything appears to be using
KERNELCPPFLAGS.

Just to be sure, I tried autoconf/configure and indeed, the Makefile does not
have the correct options.

Perhaps this is a version issue?  I'm using 2.4.2.  Were the *CPPFLAGS renamed
to *CFLAGS in the cvs source since then?  In any case, I wasn't too concerned
that the naming was unconventional, so long as it worked. :)

Yeah, we're weird like that.  We will be switching to 2.6 eventually, when RHEL4
gets its EAL certification.
