sir, error while selecting options during LiS compilation

[kishore]

sir,
During LiS compilation, it will prompt to select certain options( in
general default) .

I got a message as following :

/*---------*/

Do you intend to run LiS on this machine with
the currently running kernel? [default: y]
Will use /usr/src/kernels/2.6.9-16.EL-i686/include for header files.
No kernel support for SMP detected.
In file included from <command line>:1:
/usr/src/kernels/2.6.9-16.EL-i686/include/linux/config.h:6:2: #error
including kernel header in userspace; use the glibc headers instead!
Kernel support for mod-versions detected.
Kernel support for IP version 6 detected.
Kernel support for IP version 6 modules detected.
Kernel version verified between kernel source and running kernel
In file included from <command line>:1:
/usr/src/kernels/2.6.9-16.EL-i686/include/linux/config.h:6:2: #error
including kernel header in userspace; use the glibc headers instead!
Kernel compiled using register passing for parameters
Running kernel is version 2.6.9-16.EL
/*---------*/

I used default option only.
I am not able to understand the words
" error including kernel header in userspace; use the glibc headers
instead! ". let me know, what it means.

Can some one provide help in resolving this issue.

regards,
kishore.
