I also had to change src/util/sys_defs.h:
diff --git a/src/util/sys_defs.h b/src/util/sys_defs.h
index f4f53300..6a5da4fe 100644
--- a/src/util/sys_defs.h

After that, postfix builds. And if you receive this mail, it also
works. :-)

It might be better to use a single SYSTYPE for all current and future
Linux kernels, e.g. like this:
diff --git a/makedefs b/makedefs
index 227fdd54..bd3ab32e 100644
--- a/makedefs
+++ b/makedefs

That buys some additional time until Linux 10 comes along.
