Hmmm...  either libc version skew or kernel version skew.  The headers
the package is building against aren't providing what it expects.

Let's see, ctrl-alt-google and:

  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=561687

It looks like you need to #include <bits/sockaddr.h> before the #include
linux/netlink.h.  (Probably in your package?)

That implies the problem is in strace.  I'm already patching strace to
build natively on armv5l, you can grab that binary from
http://landley.net/aboriginal/downloads/binaries/extras/strace-armv5l

And the strace source patches are under:

http://landley.net/hg/control-images/file/tip/images/static-tools/patches/

I'm in the process of writing a control-images howto. :)
