Here is all the mentions of xdr_hyper in /usr/include on my box:

[0]akutz at amends:libvirt-HEAD-20080121$ grep -R xdr_hyper /usr/include
/usr/include/nfs/nfsm_subs.h:		txdr_hyper(&__tmp64, (NMC)->nmc_ptr); \
/usr/include/nfs/nfsm_subs.h:		fxdr_hyper(__tmpptr, &(LVAL)); \
/usr/include/nfs/xdr_subs.h:#define	fxdr_hyper(f, t) { \
/usr/include/nfs/xdr_subs.h:#define	txdr_hyper(f, t) { \
/usr/include/rpc/xdr.h:extern bool_t	xdr_hyper(XDR *, quad_t *);

I tried including xdr.h in the remote_control.x file but that did not  
work. I am not familiar with the XDR language, so please pardon my  
ignorance. Thank you again for your help.
