First off, making modifications to the kernel library is a bad idea.
Basically it means that your mudlib is tied to a specific version of
the kernel library, and that it will not work (without modifications)
with different kernel library or different DGD versions.  I am about
to make a large amount of changes to the kernel library for light-weight
objects, for example.  There will be more changes for multi-processor
support.

The kernel.h file must be included as <kernel/kernel.h>.  The curious
errormessages are due to the fact that the kernel library cannot
handle errors occurring in its own code.
