Hell, I'm not surprised the compiler's confused , so am I:

so the first line printed after I login tells me ts10, uname says 
ts11 and dmesg recorded ts11 but a different build time.

now I always thought uname was the definitive answer but where the 
hell do the other conflicting answers come from?

If the compiler believes ts10 I'm not surprised it can't find the 
tree.

Looks like time to give Sid the bullet and get a less antiquated OS 
and root fs on these boards.
