Thank you.  I couldn't reproduce it on my amd64 box with linux-3.16-3.
The error message suggests a missing header of endian.h, which is in
libc6-dev:amd64: /usr/include/endian.h

libc6-dev is pulled in by build-essential and dkms.

It might turn out to be a bug of piuparts.  I will set up a working
piuparts to find it out.

Cheers,
Benda
