That's a fine contradiction if ever I saw one ...

Which is exactly what pulseaudio does. The offending header file from /Developer (the one containing the type definitions?) must have been included indirectly because it doesn't show up in the include hierarchy printed with the error message.

Exactly. Or rather, a build system that checks for and adds an obsolete source of header files.

Out of curiosity and because I still do have a 10.6 system: what's the story behind /Developer/Headers? I don't recall ever having used it. I'm going to leave it moved aside for now, unless that's a known source of trouble in itself (on 10.6 of course).
