Hi Paul,
No, this patch is bogus, sorry.
split-include.c is a normal C program which does not use or know about any kernel facilities. You ought to be able to compile it on any Unix system with an ISO/ANSI standard C compiler (not even a Linux system).
If you are having problems compiling split-include, then you probably have problems compiling any C programs that use normal C library facilities. split-include just happens to be the first one you see.
This question comes up frequently, and I've written a patch with an explicit scripts/hostcc-test.c test. I'm sending the patch to linux-kbuild for feedback.
