[vdr] Re: VDR fails to build (because of time.h inconsistency?)

["Lars von Wedel" <vonwedel@web.de>]

I had the same problem. The userspace headers vs. Kernel headers is one
thing.

Another is that in videodev.h (IIRC) there is a parameter called "new" which
causes some trouble when compiled with the c++ compiler.
