Then the solution is to do as I suggested - use your distro's config.

It's the one above. Click on the option that causes that symbol to be
compiled in! As far as I can see, it is defined in rtnetlink.c, and
that is compiled in if you have CONFIG_NET=y.

 obj-$(CONFIG_NET) += dev.o dev_mcast.o dst.o neighbour.o rtnetlink.o utils.o

o

/* 
 * Process one packet of messages.
 * Malformed skbs with wrong lengths of messages are discarded
 * silently.
 */

   extern __inline__ int rtnetlink_rcv_skb(struct sk_buff *skb)
   {
   ...


I don't know what extern __inline__ does for gcc. An exported macro?
Must be exported since it's not static, but it's weird!
