That's one of your system headers, not a part of BusyBox.  We may be 
triggering something, but I haven't seen this problem before.

Something's happening before that other header is included.  Some #define, or 
some other header getting #included, that's driving one of your standard 
system headers nuts.

Possibly you want to do the make with V=2 so you can see what gcc invocations 
it's actually doing, and then run gcc -E to see what's coming out of the 
preprocessor?
