Well, you didn't include the patch, but I assume you must be commenting out one of these lines in scripts/Makefile.headersinst: # Work out what needs to be removed oldheaders := $(patsubst $(INSTALL_HDR_PATH)/$(_dst)/%,%,$(wildcard $(INSTALL_HDR_PATH)/$(_dst)/*.h)) unwanted := $(filter-out $(header-y) $(unifdef-y) $(objhdr-y),$(oldheaders)) Unless it's going to be accepted upstream, then I'm not really interested in adding a patch here which takes one extra command to workaround. Which, now that I look again, makes this much easier to solve. # make INSTALL_HDR_PATH=/usr oldheaders= headers_install Try running with V=1 and with and without oldheaders set. $ mkdir -p ~/src/include/ $ cp /usr/include/*.h ~/src/include/ $ make INSTALL_HDR_PATH=~/src headers_install V=1 ... make[1]: `scripts/unifdef' is up to date. make -f /home/dnicholson/src/linux-2.6.21.5/scripts/Makefile.headersinst obj=include rm -f /home/dnicholson/src/include/aio.h rm -f /home/dnicholson/src/include/aliases.h rm -f /home/dnicholson/src/include/alloca.h rm -f /home/dnicholson/src/include/ansidecl.h rm -f /home/dnicholson/src/include/a.out.h ... $ ls ~/src/include/ asm asm-generic linux mtd rdma sound video $ make INSTALL_HDR_PATH=~/src oldheaders= headers_install V=1 ... make[1]: `scripts/unifdef' is up to date. make -f /home/dnicholson/src/linux-2.6.21.5/scripts/Makefile.headersinst obj=include make -rR -f /home/dnicholson/src/linux-2.6.21.5/scripts/Makefile.headersinst obj=include/asm-generic dst=include/asm-generic rel=../ ... $ ls ~/src/include/ aio.h _G_config.h sched.h aliases.h gconv.h search.h alloca.h getopt.h semaphore.h ansidecl.h gettext-po.h setjmp.h So, just by passing oldheaders= to make, it won't try to remove anything.
