Did you install the linux-libc-headers for the kernel and architecture you want? Please look at http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/lfs/view/stable/chapter05/linux-libc-headers.html in Ch. 5. The whole purpose of using this package is so you don't use headers directly from the kernel tarball. Now something that is quirky in your situation is that you have a 64 bit processor (yes?). Since LFS only builds a 32 bit system, you have to install the headers from the i386 subdirectories of linux-libc-headers. This seems stupid since you obviously have an x86_64, but I think those headers are only for building a 64 bit system. If you want to build a 64 bit system from LFS there are projects here to do that, but it is still a work in progress. You can do a standard 32 bit install that will still be really fast with your hardware. If you really want a 64 bit system, you probably should just go with a distro until you've done LFS a few times. (Just my opinion.
