I'm trying to install the latest AMD graphics drivers (12.8, downloaded from AMD's website) on Linux Mint Debian Edition running kernel 3.7.0-rc1. The installed ran, then exited with errors. Checking the logs, I found that compilation had failed. The error messages:

I did some Googling but didn't find anything. It looks like I'm missing a library or something. I tried installing the driver from the repo, it fails with the same error on this kernel. It does compile and work on 3.2.0, but I need a newer kernel version than that. Any ideas?
