The following article from the SCO Information Tools database should help 
with your problem.   I'm posting because I think this may be of general
interest.

I installed the UFE diskette and now cannot relink my kernel.

RELEASE:   Open Desktop Release 1.0 with UFE

PROBLEM:   I have installed the UFE disk and now I am unable to
           relink my kernel.  The link fails with the message:

           /./etc/conf/pack.d/kernel/space.c , line 310: unknown size
           Error: /./etc/conf/pack.d/kernel/space.c will not compile
           properly.
           
           Line 310 of the file space.c reads "struct stseldata
           selstreams[NSTREAM]."

SOLUTION:  This problem occurs because an out of date header file for
           streams has been installed.  To correct the problem, use
           the following commands to extract the correct streams file 
	   from the UFE disk that is labeled volume 2:

              cd /
              tar xvf /dev/rfd096ds15 ./tmp/386GT/include/sys/streams.h
              cd /tmp/386GT/include/sys
              cp streams.h /usr/include/sys/streams.h
              cd /tmp
              rm -rf 386GT

            Linking of the kernel will now complete without error.
