That's a wierd error. I doubt it's directly related to LVM, it looks to me like 
the files in /usr/include are not available for some reason. It might be
something odd like just not having the development packages installed or it
could be something much stranger.

See what /usr/include looks like, it may be a symlink to somewhere else or it
may contain symlinks to other files that cannot be resolved.

It might be worth seeing if you can compile anything else - I would doubt it
looking at that error.
