I did not test this on other kernels (just 3.13.0-11-generic), but the
problem probably came with the newer kernel.

This is looking like some wrong include order or something in that
direction. I already made some experiments, but without success so far.

What might give some hint:

uint is defined in types.h, which resides here:
/usr/src/linux-headers-3.13.0-11-generic/include/linux/types.h

I strace'd the building process. 
The strace indicates that the types.h above is never been accessed. Instead, it 
accesses
/usr/src/linux-headers-3.13.0-11-generic/include/uapi/linux/types.h

I've not really a glue about these things, but this seems not correct
for me.
