Hmmm... modifying some glibc (or kernel) include files just to get 
lcd4linux working... hmmm.... I'd not consider this 'clean' :-)

maybe you could search for where u16 and u8 are defined. Maybe it's 
sufficient to include this file just before if_ppp.h. On the other hand, 
maybe if_ppp.h should include these necessary files itself...

This should be no problem, as I'm using the same kernel here.
