Subject: scripts/unifdef.c:209: error: conflicting types for 'getline'

Hello;
I am unable to compile the kernel
(just did a git pull a few minuets ago);
here is what I see:

WARNING: modpost: Found 1 section mismatch(es).
To see full details build your kernel with:
'make CONFIG_DEBUG_SECTION_MISMATCH=y'
  GEN     .version
  CHK     include/linux/compile.h
  UPD     include/linux/compile.h
  CC      init/version.o
  LD      init/built-in.o
  LD      .tmp_vmlinux1
  KSYM    .tmp_kallsyms1.S
   AS      .tmp_kallsyms1.o
  LD      .tmp_vmlinux2
  KSYM    .tmp_kallsyms2.S
  AS      .tmp_kallsyms2.o
  CHK     include/linux/version.h
  HOSTCC  scripts/unifdef
scripts/unifdef.c:209: error: conflicting types for 'getline'
/usr/include/stdio.h:651: note: previous declaration of 'getline' was here
make[2]: *** [scripts/unifdef] Error 1
make[1]: *** [__headers] Error 2
make: *** [vmlinux] Error 2

The only change to .config was:

SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2 [=y]
to
SYSFS_DEPRECATED_V2 [=n]
to see if I can make udev from:

udev: starting version 137
[    7.557317] udev: deprecated sysfs layout; update the kernel or disable
CONFIG_SYSFS_DEPRECATED; some udev features will not work correctly

giving me this message.

also I did use a CFLAGS when compiling,
but never received this when doing so for:
2.6.29-rc5-00289-g460c133

any info would be appreciated.

regards;
